Abstract: | Effect of 96% ethanol para-neural injection on sympathetic trunk has been studied experimentally on 18 rabbits. It is demonstrated that ethanol injection leads to dystrophic alteration of sympathetic ganglia and acute aseptic inflammation of para-neural tissues. Clinical study has been carried out on 40 elderly and old patients with critical lower limb ischemia and diffuse arterial occlusive disease. All the patients were divided into 2 equal groups. At the patients of 1st group the revascularizing osteo-trepanation of femur and crus was performed, at 2nd group this operation was completed with ultrasonic-assisted lumbar chemical desympathetization on affected side. At 20% of 1st group patients the symptoms of critical ischemia have not be eliminated; there were no negative dynamics of ischemia at the patients of 2nd group. |
