title: [Reducing mortality rate in acute thromboembolism of aortic bifurcation and major arteries of the extremities].
abstract: From generalization of experience in surgical and nonoperative treatment of 820 patients with acute thrombosis and embolism of the bifurcation of the aorta and the main arteries of the limbs the author claims that the following factors played a considerable role in improving the results of treatment and reducing the mortality: mastering and improving the techniques of operative intervention, elucidating the role of certain pathogenetic mechanisms of the origin of thrombosis and embolism depending on the character of the principal disease, preventing and treating the inclusion syndrome, and changing to active surgical tactics. The mortality fell to 13%. The possibility of predicting the outcome of the operation is shown. The prevention and treatment of diseases causing thrombosis and embolism are the further means of reducing the mortality.
