title: [Evaluation of results of surgical treatment of obliterating thrombangiitis in patients living in the North Arctic].
abstract: Immediate and long-term results of surgical treatment of patients with obliterating thrombangiitis in patients living in Arctic North are analyzed. It is revealed that course of disease depends on length of patient's stay in Arctic North. These patients were younger, demonstrated more intensive progression of disease and more distal type of arterial lesion. Surgical treatment permitted to save 75.9% extremities in patients living in Arctic North with thrombangiitis and critical ischemia during 5 years after surgery that is worse than in patients living in Moscow region -- control group (86.1%). In long-term period more stable positive result was achieved after indirect revascularisation (save of extremity 78.3%).
