  • Title: [Expediency of combined lumbar sympathectomy with reconstructive-restorative operations in arteriosclerotic lesion of the aorto-femoral segment].
    Author: Gusak VK, Ivanenko AA, Nabli M.
    Journal: Vestn Khir Im I I Grek; 1987 Dec; 139(12):46-9. PubMed ID: 3507809.
    Abstract:
    An examination of patients after reconstructive operations on the aorto-femoral segment in combination with lumbar sympathectomy (173 patients) and without it (75 patients) has shown sympathetcomy to promote reduction of the amount of postoperative thromboses and amputations in the early postoperative period. In the remote period the frequency of reocclusions in patients subjected to sympathectomy was higher. The authors consider that sympathectomy is responsible for progress of atherosclerosis.
