Abstract
 Little evidence is available on the effects of rehabilitation for critical lower limb ischemia after revascularization. The loading policy should be revised depending on the process of wound healing, although no indications have been established. In the present study, wounds were classified by site and tissue damage in patients with multiple extensive wounds on the foot, caused by critical lower limb ischemia, for whom rehabilitation was performed depending on their evaluation. As a result, the patients could bear a load and started walking at an appropriate time during wound healing, resulting in healing of the wounds and recovery of walking ability.
