55 patients with arterial hypertension (AH) of I–II stages were examined during their medical treatment. Sonographygraphy and echocardiography was performed using ESAOTE TECHNOS MP BIOMEDICA scanner. Changes in left ventricular thickneses, intima-media thickness (IMT) of carotid and femoral arteries in patients with AH were found. Correlation between IMT of carotid and femoral arteries with echocardiographic findings was also found. The conclusion was made about necessity of complex estimation of carotid and femoral arteries condition, taking into account correlation extent between arteries condition and echocardiographic indices, without paying attention at some indices.
