title: [Recent patho-biochemical view of ischemia-reperfusion injury].
abstract: Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) in patients with limb ischaemia remains still a topical problem and it is a subject of research. Some degree of tissue injury is expressed in each patient, regardless of type of ischaemia (acute or chronic). The difference is stated in extent of injury and in clinical relevance. In our article we provide current theoretical view of IRI and possibilities to influence it.
