[Regional orthostatic hypertension and thromboangiitis of the lower extremities]

A study of local orthostatic disorders of pulse blood filling, microcirculation and acid-base state in the affected limbs of 84 patients with thrombo-angiitis has suggested that local orthostatic distal vascular hypertension in the lower limbs, along with subsequent vascular tissue metabolic and coagulation response, conditions preferential development and progress of spastic, ischemic and thrombotic manifestations of the disease.
