pubmed:abstractText |
Four uremic patients with advanced peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAOD) of lower limbs causing rest pain and ischemic-necrotic lesions were treated with a four-hour intravenous infusion of iloprost at doses of 0.75-2.5 ng/kg/min for twenty-eight days. After a week of the therapy all patients experienced disappearance of rest pain and prolonged walking distance. At the end of the trial a diabetic patient showed a complete regression of the necrotic areas of two toes while the other patients still showed ischemic-necrotic foot lesions that were well demarcated. Iloprost therapy can be effective in uremic patients with severe PAOD.
