Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is estimated to affect more than 20% of people
older than 65 years. The vast majority of patients with symptoms suggestive of
PAD have atherosclerosis often associated with conventional vascular risk factors
such as smoking, diabetes, dyslipidemia, and inflammation. A minority of people
presenting with symptoms suggesting PAD have an alternative etiology. These
groups of disorders are often underdiagnosed, and if diagnosed correctly the
diagnosis may be delayed. Understanding these pathologies well is important, as
they can be very debilitating and optimal treatment may vary significantly.
Inappropriate treatment of these disorders can lead to worsening morbidity and
mortality. This article discusses the underlying causes of nonatherosclerotic
PAD, including the diagnosis and treatment of these disorders.
