  Background: Prostaglandin E1 has been reported to benefit patients with significant peripheral vascular disease and limb threatening ischemia. The present retrospective study attempts to assess the effect of Prostaglandin E1 on ankle brachial index in non reconstructable symptomatic peripheral artery disease patients. Objectives: To study the effect of Prostaglandin E1 on ankle brachial index in non reconstructable symptomatic peripheral artery disease patients. Methods: Case records of 40 patients who had completed at least six cycles of injection were obtained from medical records of vascular surgery. The demographic data and the ankle brachial index of these patients were recorded at baseline and at the end of six cycles of the drug. Results: The average ABI of both the limbs changed significantly from baseline to the end of s.. View More»
