[Findings in extracranial arteries ensuring cerebral blood supply in patients with peripheral and generalized disturbances of blood flow (author's transl)].

Attention is drawn to the incidence rate of the various types of obliterations of the carotid artery in the extracranial area. The evaluation is based on 242 carotid stenoses from a total of 1283 angiograms. Over and above this, the paper presents initial results of computertomography in 15 patients with obliterations of the carotid arteries in the cervical region.
