RESULTS OF MODERN METHODS OF RESTORATION OF BLOOD FLOW AT A CRITICAL ISCHEMIA IN PATIENTS WITH ATHEROSCLEROTIC LESIONS OF THE LEG ARTERIES

Abstract

One of the most main problems of medicine in 21th century is critical limb ischemia (CLI). From 500 to 1000 patients to 1 million of population have it, according many researches’ results. In our research we have made the analysis of two groups patients which had popliteal or calf arteries’ diseases. The first group was treated by balloon angioplasty, the second one was treated by therapeutical angiogenesis. The information, that were received during two years was analyzed. In the first group number of thrombosis was larger and a thrombosis was revealed in early stages. However, the amount of bad results was decreased and the term of patency was increased after a second operation. In the second group thrombosis of the stenotic artery of the tibia had place in later stages, what resulted in repeated therapeutic angiogenesis that was needed for evolving of microcirculation.
