[Functional outcomes of legs obliterative endarteritis treatment by Ilizarov's method].
The method of Ilizarov was used for the treatment of 94 patients with obliterative endarteritis (stage II-IV). The significant improvement of functional status of the patients has been achieved as well as the improvement of peripheral blood circulation. The rate of positive results in the long-term follow up period was 57-70%. The rate of improvement depended on the functional status of vascular system. The method of Ilizarov is indicated in patients without occlusion of iliac and femoral arteries, and the pressure index more than 0.6; the peak blood flow index more than 3.0.
