Abstract
CHRONIC AND severe arterial occlusive disease damages peripheral nerves and results in a regional neuropathy in the ischemic limb.1-11 Clinical and electrophysiologic features of this chronic ischemic neuropathy have been reported previously.1,3,5,6,9-11 The symptoms are predominantly sensory and might be easily obscured by ischemic limb pain.Keywords
