[Chinese expert consensus on the endovascular treatment of ischemic lesions in the diabetic foot].

The arterial lesions in the lower limbs of diabetic foot patients are very complex, and restoring arterial blood flow in the lower limbs is the key to improving the quality of life and limb preservation rate of diabetic foot patients. The current endovascular treatment technique is the main choice in China because of its minimally invasive nature and rapid postoperative recovery. In order to provide better and more standardized treatment for diabetic foot and benefit patients, the Diabetic Foot Sub-Committee of the China Association for the Promotion of International Exchange of Healthcare and the Diabetic Foot Committee of the Chinese Chapter Congress of the International Union of Angiology have developed this consensus based on the literature and the clinical experience of various experts, including the objectives and principles of diabetic foot treatment and the selection of endovascular treatment methods for vascular lesions.
