In 11 patients with occlusive arterial disease and severe cutaneous ischaemia, orthostasis procuded a significant decrease in the I-131 clearance in the distal crural subcutis. In the metatarsal subcutis, however, the mean clearance value remained unchanged on the average, and in patients with low initial clearance values it mostly increased.
