Abstract

Microcirculation in the skin of the lower extremities 29 was studied in apparently healthy people of both sexes aged 20 to 48 years with regard to angiosomes approach. For this purpose the method of laser Doppler imaging was used. As a result of the study, normal parameters of microcirculatory activity in the skin of human lower extremities were developed, which depended not only on the main flow, but also on the characteristics of direct blood supply to the skin. To level the physiological variation in the activity of the microcirculation, it is recommended to use the ratio of the activity of perfusion in the angiosome examined to control one (cubital fossa). The results obtained will allow to extend the application of angiosome theory to the field of plastic and vascular surgery.
