Introduction: At the present stage, according to the data of the transatlantic consensus (TASC II 2007 USA), about 90% of amputations of the lower limbs are performed around the world in view of the critical lower limb ischemia (CLLI). The most common diseases with CLLI with concomitant CHF are aorto-iliac segment lesions. In the treatment of lesions of the arteries of the aorto-iliac segment, surgical methods of treatment (shunting and endovascular methods of treatment) are used in most cases. In case of impossibility of direct revascularization operations in these patients is a high risk of amputation at hip level and deaths. Therefore, for today the choice of tactics of surgical treatment for lesions of arteries of the aorto-iliac segment remains unresolved, if direct revascularization operations are not possible.
