title: [Method of laser Doppler-flowmetry in the assessment of efficiency of sympathectomy in patients with upper extremity ischemia].
abstract: Changes to microcirculation were analyzed in 61 patients after 76 upper-chest sympathectomies. Rheovasography, transcutaneous determination of partial oxygen pressure in the tissues, laser Doppler-flowmetry were performed to evaluate the microcirculation. The data obtained give evidence of a significantly better microcirculation after the upper-chest sympathectomy.
