Abstract

The authors analyze the results of conservative and operative treatment of 546 patients. The results of operative treatment (reconstructive operations on the arteries, osteo-trepanation) were shown to be considerably better in cases of critical ischemia than those of conservative treatment (infusion therapy, hemodilution, plasmapheresis).
