For patients requiring peripheral vascular surgery, coronary artery disease is the major
determinant of perioperative mortality and long‐term survival. The management of coronary …

It is now well established that arteriosclerotic or atherosclerotic occlusive disease tends to
assume distinctive anatomic, pathologic, and clinical patterns in the four major arterial beds …

In an attempt to reduce early and late mortality caused by myo-cardial infarction, coronary
angiography was performed in 1000 patients (mean age, 64 years) under consideration for …

The prevalence of serious angiographic coronary artery disease ranges from 37% to 78% in
patients undergoing operation for peripheral vascular disease. Clinical studies have …

BACKGROUND: Patients with peripheral vascular disease (PVD) undergoing coronary
revascularization have high rates of adverse outcomes. Whether there are important …

The complications of associated coronary artery disease (myocardial infarction, arrhythmia,
or congestive heart failure) always have been the leading causes of early mortality and late …

The prevalence of coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients with peripheral arterial disease
(PAD) varies widely in published reports. This is likely due at least in part to significant …

Objectives: This study was designed to compare the long-term outcomes of patients with
peripheral arterial disease (PAD) with a risk factor matched population of coronary artery …

Objectives. The purpose of this study was to determine the importance of peripheral arterial
disease in predicting long-term survival in patients with clinically evident coronary artery …

Objective: To examine the effect of peripheral vascular disease (PVD) on long-term mortality
after successful myocardial revascularization. Methods: We performed a regional cohort …
