Descriptive summary of Global Limb Anatomic Staging System (GLASS) stages of infrainguinal arterial disease

Estimated PVI outcomes
Stage Technical failure 1-year LBP Anatomic pattern

I <10% >70% Short- to intermediate-length FP disease and/or short-length IP disease; no or minimal popliteal disease
II <20% 50%ā€“70% Intermediate- to long-length FP disease; may include popliteal stenosis and/or short- to intermediate-length IP disease
III >20% <50% Extensive FP or IP occlusions, alone or in combination with any disease in the other segment; popliteal CTO

CTO, Chronic total occlusion; FP, femoropopliteal; IP, infrapopliteal; LBP, limb-based patency; PVI, peripheral [endo-]vascular intervention.
