[The results of a questionnaire on the status of vascular surgery in Czechoslovakia].
In 1985 an enquiry by means of questionnaires was made at all surgical departments of the CSR. Its aim was to assess the state of vascular surgery, conditions under which it is performed and to compare quantitative and qualitative data with the actual needs. In 1984 in the CSR a total of 2564 vascular operations were performed, incl. 751 urgent ones and 1813 planned operations. With regard to the estimated need of cca 500 operations per 1 million population (comparable data from Scandinavian countries), the 248 operations per 1 million population are quite inadequate. In contrast to this, 82 surgeons claim to be concerned with active vascular surgery which is almost twice the number needed to ensure an adequate number of vascular surgical operations. The authors analyze the causes of the inadequate development of vascular surgery which ensued from the enquiry and indicate possibilities of future development.
