The majority of persons with this condition are asymptomatic, and less a fifth report typical intermittent claudication [3]. The literature shows us that the risk of limb loss for those who do not have diabetes is 2% or less [4] and, also, that this risk increases three-fold in patients with diabetes requiring pharmacological therapy (oral or insulin) [5].</p> | ||
