title: [Chronic angiospastic arterial ischemia of limbs in the patients of elderly and senile age].
abstract: The experience of examination and treatment of about 3000 patients having chronic arterial ischemia of extremities allowed to determine that such a clinical presentation appears as a result of functional organic diseases of arteries of extremities: arterial vasoconstriction and obliterating disease of arteries (obliterating atherosclerosis, obliterating endoarteritis, diabetic angiopathy). Chronic ischemia of extremities develops from arterial vasoconstriction of central genesis and then obliterating disease of arteries joins the process. The paper is devoted to the first phase of development of chronic arterial ischemia of extremities: vertebragenous angiospastic disease of arteries of extremities and its treatment for patients of middle and old age.
