Title: [Which therapeutic measures ensure good long-term results in arterial occlusive disease?]. Author: Schoop W. Journal: Arzneimittelforschung; 1990 Mar; 40(3A):379-81. PubMed ID: 2185769. Abstract: The lumen-opening methods reconstructive operation, angioplasty and thrombolysis achieve their best long-term results in the region of the large iliofemoral arteries. After elimination of occlusions in arteries situated more peripherally, reobliterations are more frequent and not uncommonly associated with a deterioration in the course of the disease. Of the conservative measures, long-term benefit is to be expected primarily from continuous training. Pharmacotherapy with anticoagulants or inhibitors of thrombocyte function (acetylsalicylic acid) is likely to be successful in certain patients.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
