  • Title: [Reconstructive surgery of the cavo-ilio-femoral segment in acute occlusion].
    Author: Alemany J, Görtz H.
    Journal: Zentralbl Chir; 1999; 124(1):37-41. PubMed ID: 10091296.
    Abstract:
    In-between 25 years 105 reconstructions of the cavoiliacal segment have been performed, for malignant disease 37, for fibrotic stenoses of the left common iliac vein 48, additionally in injury and hypoplasia of the caval or iliac veins and in case of thrombosed caval filters. In case of reconstructions of the iuxtarenal caval vein and renal veins (27) a direct suture with or without patch plasty was preferred. Reconstructions of the infrarenal caval vein have been performed by direct suture (16), by graft interposition (9) or bypass (2). Mainly reconstructions using deep veins as an autologous graft are preferred. Most operations have been performed in order to reconstruct the iliac veins (70). Endovascular procedures such as dilatation with or without stenting (35) offer an excellent palliation in tumour disease, however, results are poor in treatment of fibrotic stenoses of the left common iliac vein. Better results can be achieved by cross-over-bypasses (30), especially when using a superficial femoral vein graft.
