The paper presents the authors' experience in surgically treating aortic occlusions in 325 patients. A total of 275 reparative operations were made from 1978 to 1991. The authors proposed their own classification of aortic occlusions in terms of pathomorphological changes in the aorta and hence offered types of reparative operations and choice of surgical access. In extensive arterial lesions in the femoropopliteal area in combination with high aortic occlusion, the authors recommend that "two-story" reconstructions should be performed by including the distal arterial bed into blood flow. The intraoperative mortality was 1.4%.
