title: [Acute arterial thrombosis: diagnosis and surgical therapy].
abstract: There is an increasing frequency of acute ischemic occlusion due to arterial thrombosis; the incidence has a range from 17% to 60%. In contrast to embolism we can observe a prolonged therapy less interval due to a lesser dramatic clinical course; in thrombotic occlusion only 10% can be treated within 6 h after onset of symptoms. In 11 to 93% of all cases extensive and comprehensive surgical techniques have to be performed for limb salvage. Nevertheless this aim only can be achieved in 60-84%.
