The results of treatment of 115 patients with vascular injuries were studied within the terms from 3 to 20 years after the operation. In 7 patients the vessels were ligated, in the remainder--repaired. The functional state of the extremity and blood vessels was studied using oscillo- and rheography, angiography, ergometry and other methods. In 81 patients (70.5%) the extremity function was normal, in 24 (20.8%)--moderately restricted, and in 10 (8.7%)--poor.
