In thromboangiitis obliterans when smoking is stopped at least a recession of the superficial phlebitis can be expected, in a relatively short time. No specific measures are available in the management of arteriosclerosis. There are currently available many modes of therapy which have been devised with the hope of developing a competent collateral circulation. When improvement does follow their use it has taken so long that it is...Bibliography1. CLARKCLARK EREL: The new formation of arterio-venous anastomosis in the rabbits' ear, Am.
