Transplantation of bone-marrow stem cell on chronic lower extremity ischemia / 国际外科学杂志

ABSTRACT

Atheroselerosis and thrombangiitis obliterans are the chief factors of chronic lower extremity ischemia. Usually we utilize intervcntional treatment which includs balloon dilatation and stent implantation or surgical revascularization for the patients who have good target vessels, but those methods are not suitable for the patients who have small target vessels. The transplantation of bone marrow stem cells is the new tech-nology for chronic lower extremity isehemia, which utilize the capacity of stem cells that have multiple differ-entiation activity and high self renewal potentiality. It can direetionally differentiated into endothelial cells. It has a good perspective in chronic lower extremity isehemia.
