title: [Plastic surgery of the arteries of the lower limbs with autologous vein and its association with lumbar sympathectomy].
abstract: In surgical treatment of patients with arterial occulsion of the lower limbs an autovein was employed as a transplant in 66 patients. In 22 patients reconstructive operation was performed after preliminary lumbar sympathectomy. Restored patency of the operated segment with restoration of foot artery pulsation was noted in 53 patients. Late results were followed up for 1--6 years in 32 patients. Major blood flow was maintained in 24 patients (75%). Other conditions being equal, reconstructive operations yield better results, if lumbar sympathectomy was preliminary performed.
