BACKGROUND: Development of critical ischemia of lower limbs in patients with atherosclerosis causes negative consequences due to the high probability of detecting multilevel changes, as well as identifying coronary and carotid pools.
АIM: The aim of the study was to investigate gender differences in critical lower limb ischemia of atherosclerotic genesis following reconstructive interventions.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Arterial reconstructions have been performed in 261 patients with peripheral atherosclerosis (95 women and 166 men). The specific features of reconstructive interventions have been taken into account; complications and the number of amputations have been analyzed in the early period.
RESULTS: Higher pulse pressure has been registered in the female group; tibial arteries have been affected significantly more frequently (p 0,05). Thrombosis of the operated segment has been observed more frequently in the male patients at the stage of critical ischemia; in the case of claudication the complications were sporadic.
CONCLUSIONS: The best results of reconstructive care in men and women with peripheral atherosclerosis at the claudication stage determine the vector of active tactics in the absence of conservative treatment results.
