The main goal of this Multidisciplinary School is to support clinicians to develop specific competencies in order to deal with and manage critical limb ischemia and diabetic foot disorders, to reinforce specific skills for selecting and applying appropriate revascularization techniques in critical limb ischemia treatment, tailoring the intervention according to lesion type and revascularization targets.

The increased knowledge of the clinical manifestations and pathophysiology of these diseases together with the specific interventional approaches will enable the learner to prevent delayed and incorrect diagnosis by selecting the appropriate treatment approach and to adopt well-time and patient-tailored strategies. 

In this course, we will propose in the first unit a decision flow chart for choosing the best revascularization strategy in diabetic patients with critical limb ischemia. In the second unit, we will summarize our experience in endovascular treatment of diabetic critical limb ischemia, focusing on the main technical challenges in treating below-the-knee vessels.
