title: [Clinical symptoms and differential diagnosis of acute arterial vascular occlusion in the limbs].
abstract: The acute arterial vascular occlusion is relatively rare, but without any exception it belongs to the medical emergency situations. The early diagnosing is decisive, since embolectomy is to be regarded as method of choice during the first 10 hours. After demonstration of the most frequent sources of embolism and their clinical manifestation symptomatology and most essential differential diagnoses of the acute arterial vascular occlusion are discussed. As  consequence for practice must be demanded that at the least supposition on the presence of an acute arterial vascular occlusion the immediate hospitalisation is necessary.
