AB Peripheral  vascular  disease  (PVD),  also  known  as  the  peripheral  artery  disease,  refers  to  stenosis  and,  ultimately,  total  occlusion  of  large  arteries  outside  of  the  coronaries,  aortic  arch,  and  brain  by  atherosclerotic  or  inflammatory  processes.  Despite  its  high  prevalence,  it  is  commonly  underdiagnosed  and  leads  to  an  increased  risk  of  cardiovascular  death,  major  tissue  loss,  poor  quality  of  life,  and  higher  rates  of  depression.
