Do you want to avoid amputation of your limbs?

Are you suffering from dry gangrene of the limbs, particularly in a diabetic patient profile? The peripheral vascular intervention can be effectively performed prior to the development of dry gangrene or in the early stages of dry gangrene to prevent amputation and salvage the limb.

We offer a comprehensive service for aortic iliac, SFA, and below-knee (infrapopliteal) vascular interventions.

We have a dedicated team, trained in peripheral vascular intervention under my supervision for the last 20 years. At present, we are based in Saleem Memorial Hospital to provide this valuable service in the private sector, which unfortunately is not available in all public sector hospitals.

Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) refers to any condition that affects the blood vessels outside of the heart and brain.

Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD) refers to any condition affecting the blood vessels outside the heart and brain. The most common form of PVD is chronic occlusion of the blood vessels of the limbs, leading to bluish or dark discoloration and loss of function of the affected part of the limb. This advanced stage is known as Dry Gangrene or Chronic Limb Ischemia (CLI).

These conditions can range from mild to severe:

Intermittent Claudication pain or cramping in the legs during walking, relieved by rest.

Critical Limb Ischemia (CLI/Dry Gangrene) – severe reduction in blood flow with risk of limb loss.

Serious Complications – if untreated, PVD can result in leg amputation, heart attack, or stroke.
