Abstract

In this work we have tried to analyze certain characteristics of patients suffering from arterial occlusive diseases in the femoro-popliteal segment. As these diseases are connected with the possible occurrence of gangrene in legs and consequently with the amputation of the lower limbs, thus considerably disabling the patients and shortening their lifetime.
