Popis: Treatment results of 364 patients with multifocal lesions of brachiocephalic and lower limb arteries are analyzed. Indications for surgical treatment were based on priority principle. Staged surgical policy results in 5-year survival of 88-93% patients, improves life quality and saved limbs in 90-93% patients compared with conservative treatment. One-stage surgical interventions are associated with high lethality and should be performed with strong indications only. Conservative treatment cannot be regarded as alternative to surgical procedures.
