FIELD: medicine, surgery.

SUBSTANCE: the present innovation deals with surgical treatment of lower limbs ischemia at considerable lesion of distal channel and impossibility to conduct direct revascularization of vascular channel of affected limb. One should perform mechanical perforation of bony tissue up to medullary canal in epiphyses of femoral and leg bones being 4-5 cm, correspondingly, higher and lower against a knee joint, and, also, in the lower third of shin, metatarsal bones and phalanges followed by stimulation of bone marrow and tunnelization of muscular tissue of femur and shin by applying perforation foramens upon femur and punctures in additionally performed at lateral and posterior surfaces of shin by performing, moreover, per three tunnels from each foramen and puncture in. Stimulation of bone marrow and muscular tunnelization should be carried out with high-intensity laser radiation of diode laser of 10-15 W power in constant mode, with a light guide of 0.4 cm diameter, at exposure of 3-10 sec and quantity of therapy seances being, at least, two.

EFFECT: higher efficiency of therapy.
