title: [Endovascular interventions for critical ischemia of the lower extremities].
abstract: There were analyzed the results of examination and treatment of 12 patients, suffering critical ischemia of the lower extremities tissues in the occlusion-stenotic affection of the femoro-popliteo-tibial segment vessels, to whom miniinvasive endovascular interventions were done. Complex clinico-instrumental examination of the patients (ultrasound duplex scanning, roentgenocontrast angiography, multispiral CT with intravenous contrasting) have permitted to substantiate the indications for conduction of endovascular interventions for critical ischemia of the lower extremities. The zone of reconstruction passability was confirmed after performance of endovascular transcutaneous balloon angioplasty in the follow-up terms up to 1 year in 9 (75%) patients, the lower extremities were saved in 10 (83.3%).
