Results of surgical treatment of 368 patients with atherosclerotic occlusions of popliteal-tibial segment are analyzed. The operation method choice was based on classification, discerning five types of lesion: I type--isolated a. femoris superficialis (AFS) occlusion; II type--AFS occlusion, a. femoris profunda stenosis; III type--extended occlusions of superficial, popliteal, deep arteries and shin arteries; IV type--the lesion of distal part of a. femoris communis and a. poplitea; V type--the popliteal artery occlusion with the process transient on shin arteries.
