[Transtibial amputation of the lower extremity in patients with ischemic foot contracture]
Abstract:
The results of operative treatment of 8 patients was analyzed, in whom the lower extremity amputation on the upper third of the shin was performed for severe stage of the ischemic foot contacture. Operative interventions is expedient to perform in a specialized stationary, were exists possibility of further prosthesis. It is necessary to perform the extremity amputation in a residual period of the foot ischemic contracture, when operations for restoration of the sole sensitivity are nonperspective as well as in presence of severe trophic disorders on the sole and the shin, but without purulent--necrotic signs. Confirmed data of clinic--instrumental investigations for chronic course of the ischemic process constitutes an absolute indication for operation.
