Abstract:
In this population‐based study from Taiwan, the authors examined the incidence and outcome of non‐traumatic lower limb amputation in peritoneal dialysis (PD) and haemodialysis (HD) patients. Diabetic PD patients had a higher risk of amputation than diabetic HD patients, but this association was reversed in non‐diabetic patients. Mortality rates after amputation were similar.
