Use of electrostimulation for treatment of critical lower limb ischemia

: The analysis of efficiency of bone electrostimulation in the treatment of lower limb arteries occlusions was carried out. The method was used in a combination with lumbar sympathectomy and revascularising osteotrepanation in 52 patients with chronic critical limb ischaemia, in whom reconstructive operation was impossible. Short-term good results were achieved in 69.2% of the patients. The method allows to accelerate compensation of circulation in ischaemic limb.
