[Efficacy of using VEGF165 gene in comprehensive treatment of patients with stage 2A-3 lower limb chronic ischaemia].

The authors share their experience in treating a total of 100 patients presenting with stage 2A-3 chronic lower limb ischaemia according to the classification of Pokrovsky-Fontain (the clinical group was composed of 75 patients and the control group comprised 25 subjects), in whom it was impossible to perform surgical revascularization. The clinical group patients received in addition to the conventional vascular therapy local intramuscular injections of Neovasculogen (plasmid genetic construction containing human gene VEGF165) at a course dose of 2.4 mg.
