Occlusive lesions of the aorto-iliac segment are combined with lesions of the arteries of vital organs such as heart, brain, kidneys, visceral organs.

Materials and Methods: A prospective non-randomized clinical trial of the surgical treatment of 134 patients with occlusive aorto-iliac segment lesions was conducted. Patients were divided into 2 groups depending on the treatment tactics: the first group consisted of 70 patients with unstable aorto-iliac segment occlusion, and the second one ‑ of 64 patients, who have got preliminary surgical vascular accompanying pathology correction. Results: Complications in 30-day postoperative period in patients of the 1st group resulted in fatal outcome in 4 (5.7%) cases, in the 2nd group ‑ in 1 (1.6%) case. The 5-year mortality in patients of the 1st group was in 5 (7.7%) cases, and in the 2nd group this rage was 2 (3.3%) cases.
