[Restorative vascular operations in treating severe ischemia of the lower extremities in arteriosclerosis].
On the basis of their personal experience in the treatment of 266 patients with severe ischemia of the lower extremity the authors believe it to be expedient under threat of amputation to perform reconstructive vascular operations on the aorto-iliac and femoral-popliteal segments. Repeated revascularization of the extremity for reocclusion in the late periods after the first reconstructive operation was conducted on 116 patients. The frequency of amputations and mortality in vascular reconstructive operations are considerably lower than those in non-operative treatment and in primary amputation of the extremity.
