AB One  in  four  patients  with  peripheral  arterial  disease  (PAD)  who  require  surgical  vascular  intervention  are  patients  with  chronic  kidney  disease  (CKD).1  There  is  a  24–37%  prevalence  of  PAD  in  patients  with  CKD,  which  is  three-fold  higher  than  the  general  population.2  This  prevalence  reaches  35.7%  in  those  patients  in  the  United  States  who  have  CKD  and  are  on  hemodialysis.1  All-cause  mortality  in  patients  with  PAD  and  CKD  is  higher  for  both  those  who  do  and  do  not  undergo  renal  transplantation.3
