We followed the fate of 166 patients with limb arterial embolism in the late stage of the disease after conservative and surgical treatment from 6 months to 10 years. Of 166 patients, 44 (26.5%) died after hospital discharge. Thirty of them were older than 61 years. The most frequent causes of death in the long-term period were acute cerebrovascular disease (11), myocardial infarction (7), progressive cardiovascular insufficiency due to cardiac defects (6), repeated peripheral artery embolism causing limb gangrene (7). In 7 patients the cause of death was not determined.
