OUR EXPERIENCE OF OPTIMIZATION AND LEGITIMIZATION OF HEART TEAM WORK (MEDICAL CONSULTATION FOR DETERMINATION OF TREATMENT MANAGEMENT IN PATIENTS WITH ISCHEMIC HEART DISEASE).

The article raises the problem of optimization and legitimization of work of the Heart Team. It also described the background and international experience, provided an overview of the recent international guidelines in relation to management of revasculization in patients with stable coronary artery disease. The article presents an experience of the I.

[Remote results of endovascular revascularization in patients with lower limb critical ischaemia (LLCI) kept on chronic haemodialysis].

The study was aimed at assessing remote results of endovascular treatment of patients presenting with lower limb critical ischaemia (LLCI) and kept on chronic haemodialysis. We retrospectively analysed the results of endovascular interventions in a total of 16 patients with ischaemic defects of the foot being on chronic haemodialysis, performed from 2001 to 2012 at the Department of Roentgenosurgical Methods of Diagnosis and Treatment of the St. Petersburg Scientific Research Institute for Emergency Ambulance Care named after I.

[Angiographic characteristics of the lesion, influencing the choice to perform either direct or indirect endovascular revascularization for critical ischaemia of the lower limbs].

Aim: to determine which angiographic characteristics of a lesion of lower limb arteries are independent predictors of the possibility to re-establish the direct blood flow along the angiosomic (in relation to the trophic defect) artery.

Material And Methods: we carried out a retrospective analysis of angiograms of 192 patients with degree IV peripheral arterial disease according to A.V.

[Angiographic assessment of the incidence rate of atypical variants of the development of crural and plantar arteries].

Objective: assessing the incidence rate of atypical anatomical variants of the development of the popliteal artery and plantar arteries according to the findings of digital subtraction angiography.

Material: Retrospective analysis of angiograms of 2,456 lower limbs in 1,305 patients. The character of the arterial lesion and the quality of the angiograms allowed of evaluating the anatomy of the popliteal artery and plantar arteries on a total of 1,609 extremities (65%).
