Abstract
The following methods have proven to be effective in the treatment of peripheral vascular disorders in the elderly: local low-dose thrombolysis, systemic fibrinolysis, hemodilution, prostaglandins, transluminal angioplasty, vascular surgery. An early diagnosis, elimination or treatment of risk factors, walking-training, and specific treatment in cases of multimorbidity will improve therapeutic effectiveness.
