Resumen

Acute limb ischaemia is a multidisciplinary emergency because, within a few hours, the limb and even the patient's life may be in danger. This syndrome is characterised by a sudden decrease in limb blood perfusion. Embolism and arterial thrombosis are the main aetiologies. Immediate diagnosis, accurate assessment and urgent intervention are crucial to save the limb. A syndromic diagnosis (5p) requires the administration of heparin (prevents secondary thrombosis) and immediate evacuation of the patient. A clinical (Rutherford classification), aetiological (embolism or thrombosis) and topographical (imaging tests) diagnosis will determine treatment in the specialist centre. Fogarty probe embolectomy is effective for embolisms. An endovascular approach should be considered for thrombosis, especially in patients at risk (age, comorbidity, etc.). Mortality and amputations are still relatively high, especially in the event of diagnostic and/or therapeutic delay. There is room for improvement.
