Anatomical Distribution Patterns of Peripheral Arterial Disease According to Patient Characteristics: A Unicentral Cohort Study.

Purpose: Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a common disease with multiple risk factors and affects patients worldwide. Several international studies have established correlations between anatomical topography/distribution of atherosclerosis and comorbidities in patients with PAD. In this cohort study, we aimed to analyze the patterns of atherosclerosis (site, distribution, and degree) in patients who underwent lower limb computed tomography angiography and arterial angiography by identifying the atherosclerotic plaque(s) that were possibly responsible for thrombi.
