Popis: In 76 patients with lower limb ulcerations in the course of atherosclerotic arterial occlusion, quantitative and quantitative bacteriological examinations, angiographic examinations and ultrasonographic measurements of pressures with simultaneous calculation of ankle/arm index were performed. At the same time the progression of ulceration healing was assessed after the operation. From the samples from four patients anaerobic bacteria were cultured: three times P. prevotii and twice P. acnes. It was found that these bacteria showed resistance to antibiotics used routinely in the treatment of diseases in which they may be the aetiological factor. The usefulness was demonstrated of quantitative examination of the bacterial flora in the ulcerations for the evaluation of their healing progression. Performing of antibiograms for anaerobic bacteria was found useful.
