The article is devoted to analyzing the surgical and scientific activity of physician-in-ordinary privy councilor N.F. Arendt (1786–1859) in the field of angiology and vascular surgery and putting into scientific circulation his article published in 1823 in the first issue of the “Military Medical Journal”. The content analysis of the article revealed that N.F. Arendt was one of the first in Russian literature to describe arteriovenous malformation and its surgical treatment by ligation of the common carotid artery. It was also shown that for the first time in Russia N.F. Ardent performed ligations of the external iliac and subclavian arteries, brachiocephalic trunk, constructed and introduced into practice an instrument for applying ligations onto vessels, also publishing several scientific works dedicated to vascular surgery. N.F. Arendt’s priority achievements significantly contributed to the development of angiology and vascular surgery in Russia.
