AIM: To assess detectability of carotid atherosclerosis in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) and arterial hypertension (AH) by the data of ultrasonic screening, to study location and detectability of atherosclerotic lesion of common carotid arteries, internal carotid arteries, external carotid arteries in correlation with basic disease. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Ultrasonic screening of brachyocephalic arteries was made in 469 patients: with CHD (n = 239), AH (n = 230) including patients with concomitant postinfarction cardiosclerosis (PICS) and moderate chronic cerebrovascular failure (CCVF). RESULTS: Ultrasonic angiography detected atherosclerotic carotid artery lesion in patients with CHD and PICS (81.6%) or CCVF (76.9%) or angina pectoris (64.2%). In hypertension subjects carotid artery atherosclerosis was encountered in 28.1%. CONCLUSION: It is justified to make ultrasonography of carotid arteries in all patients with CHD and AH irrespective of age, gender, underlying clinical diagnosis.
