The aim of this study was to determine the causes of amputation and to determine whether hemodialysis is a risk factor for amputation in diabetic patients with arterial occlusive disease. We retrospectively analyzed the medical records of all diabetes-related amputations from 2000 to 2006 performed at the authors' institution. We performed univariate and multivariate analyses to determine whether any factors were associated with the presence of peripheral vascular disease (PVD), which was then used as a surrogate for atherosclerotic disease in the lower extremities. The data were examined in relation to amputation risk factors to determine whether hemodialysis, arteriovenous fistulas, and the use of vasodilators (i.e., for intermittent claudication) were independent risk factors. Of the 273 amputations, 32 (12%) were bilateral and 61 (23%) were performed on the left lower extremity. The average follow-up period was 1,760 days. During the study period, diabetes-related amputations increased from a mean of 8/year to 14/year. Twenty-two patients were receiving hemodialysis, and 4 were undergoing peritoneal dialysis. In the univariate analysis, hemodialysis was associated with a higher rate of amputation (P =.027). The multivariate analysis demonstrated that hemodialysis (P =.039) was independently associated with amputation risk. The presence of PVD was not associated with hemodialysis. PVD was independently associated with the need for amputation (P =.003), whereas hemodialysis was not (P =.150). The prevalence of vascular disease was high in this cohort of diabetes-related amputations. Hemodialysis was associated with a higher amputation rate. The presence of PVD was associated with a higher rate of amputation, whereas he 3125841983
