Background: Peripheral arterial disease has a considerable subclinical course and the identification of patients at risk of the disease is important for an early diagnosis. Objective: Describe the clinical and epidemiological characteristics of patients with diagnosis of peripheral arterial disease in which an angiography procedure was conducted in the Hospital Cayetano Heredia. Materials and Methods: Retrospective case series study in which forty-one patients were included that counted with angiography procedure and diagnosis of peripheral arterial disease in the Hospital Cayetano Heredia. Clinical and epidemiological characteristics were evaluated along with frequency of risk factors, past medical history of any other cardiovascular disease, indication of the angiography, GLASS stage, recommendations for the management and the definitive management of each patient. Results: The mean age of the participants was 65 (DE ± 11) years, 26 (68.29%) were men. The most frequent risk factor was diabetes mellitus, it was reported on 36 (87.80%) patients. 73.17% of the patients reported to have as past medical history at least 2 risk factors. Past medical history of cardiovascular disease was not common, 6 (14.63%), cerebrovascular disease was the most common one. Chronic limb threatening ischemia, 31 (75.61%), was the most frequent reason to do the angiography. The infrapopliteal vascular bed was the most affected with 22 (53.66%) patients presenting a GLASS stage of four, meanwhile, the femoropopliteal vascular bed presented a GLASS stage of 0 in 25 (60.98%) patients. The most common recommendation of management was medical treatment + angioplasty, 18 (43.90%), while the definitive management was medical treatment + limb amputation, 19 (46.34%). Conclusion: The most common risk factor in the present study was diabetes mellitus, the most common indication for doing the angiography was chronic limb threatening ischemia and the definitive treatment more frequent was medical treatment + limb amputation.
