This study was performed to investigate the common characteristics of hemodialysis patients who need upper limb amputations. An index case was identified and involved questioning physicians and reviewing hospital and office records. Hemodialysis patients who have diabetes and leg amputations are at high risk for ischemic episodes that may lead to amputation of the arm, distal to the arteriovenous access site.
