    Abstract:
    The authors have used gravitation plasmapheresis in the treatment of 26 patients with diabetic angiopathies of lower extremities. It was established that continuous gravitation plasmapheresis facilitated the immediate correction of most of the altered biochemical and coagulation parameters of blood, in patients with diabetes mellitus. The use of rheopolyglucinum is followed by stable central hemodynamics and stabilization of the general state of the patients during continuous plasmapheresis which allows to recommend rheopolyglucinum as the main plasma-substituting solution for fractionation of blood in patients with diabetic angiopathies. The gravitation plasmapheresis used in the treatment of critical degrees of ischemia in patients with diabetic angiopathies of lower extremities is thought by the authors to allow to preserve the extremity or to make the level of its amputation lower in most patients.
