ABSTRACT
The results of treatment of 58 patients, suffering chronic diseases of the lower extremities veins, were analyzed. In 28 patients a vertical reflux was eliminated using endovascular laser coagulation, in 32 patients--a standard phlebectomy in accordance to Babcock method was performed. The complications rate was compared as well as the term of the patients' stationary treatment. After elimination of endovascular laser coag- ulation the complications rate and severity is significantly lesser, than after a standard phiebectomy. In accordance to the ultrasonographic duplex scanning data in 12 mo in one patient a partial recanalization of large subcutaneous vein was noted. A total fibrous transformation of the coagulated venous trunks was achieved in 95.24% of the patients. Duration of postoperative stationary treatment have had reduced from (4.8 ± 0.8) to (1.2 ± 0.1) days (p < 0.001).

Retrospective analysis of the surgical treatment results in 50 injured persons with the damage of the neck vessels in 1998-2003 yrs period was presented. Restorational-reconstructive operations were performed in 19 (38%) injured persons with the arteries damage, in 10 (20%)--with the veins damage, the ligature operations were done, accordingly, in 6 (12%) and in 20 (40%). Satisfactory result was noted in 41 (82%) injured persons. Neurological complications had occurred in 4 (8%) of patients. Mortality had constituted 10% (5 patients died). The principles of surgical treatment of the neck vessels damage were stated.
