Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm
An abdominal aortic aneurysm, also known as AAA, occurs when a weakened area in the wall of the abdominal aorta bulges or expands. The aorta is the major blood vessel that supplies blood to the body. The most common location of an abdominal aortic aneurysm is located below the kidney arteries, called an intrarenal AAA. A ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm can cause life-threatening bleeding. An aneurysm can be characterized by its location, shape, and cause.

Aortic Dissection
An aortic dissection is a serious condition in which the inner layer of the aorta tears. When blood goes through the tear, it causes the inner and middle layer of the aorta to separate. When this happens, an aortic rupture or decreased blood flow may occur, which can be fatal. Aortic dissections are divided into two groups, type A and type B, depending on what part of the aorta is affected.

Diabetic Foot Ulcers
A diabetic foot ulcer is an open sore or wound that can occur in patients with diabetes and is commonly located on the bottom of the foot. Ulcers that become infected, result in most patients having to be hospitalized, increase the risk of potential lower extremity amputation and in extreme cases, may cause death. More than 25 million people in the United States are estimated to have diabetes mellitus (DM). Of those 25 million, 15–25% will develop a diabetic foot ulcer during their lifetime.

Peripheral Arterial Disease
Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) is a condition in which narrowing of the peripheral arteries can cause limited blood flow to the legs. The most common cause of PADis a plaque or fatty deposit build up in the arteries, also known as atherosclerosis. An estimated 8-12 million people in the United States are at risk for Peripheral Arterial Disease.
