title: [Transluminal catheter treatment in arteriovenous leg ulcers].
abstract: Early diagnosis of possible atherosclerosis as a cause of ulcers in the lower leg is necessary for adequate therapy whether it is conservative, invasive, or operative. Percutaneous transluminal treatment of arteriosclerotic obstructions offer good and long-lasting results, particularly for the inoperable patient. Sometimes it is the prerequisite for the necessary venous treatment.
