  • Title: [Surgical policy in combined occlusion of femoral-popliteal and aorto-iliac-femoral segments in occlusive diseases of lower limb arteries].
    Author: Skugar' IuA, Logush NO, Fomenko VP.
    Journal: Khirurgiia (Mosk); 2004; (1):8-10. PubMed ID: 14983155.
    Abstract:
    Long-term results of 169 reconstructive surgeries for occlusions of femoral-popliteal segment in combination with occlusions and stenosis of aorto-iliac-femoral segment (AIFS) were analyzed retrospectively. Better results were achieved in simultaneous reconstruction of both segments with vascular grafts. Correction of inflow ways with endarterectomy is not expedient. It is necessary to expand indications for surgical correction of AIFS stenosis. Surgery on arteries of AIFS must be performed when angiography demonstrates stenosis of iliac arteries more than 30% or stenotic murmur is auscultated in projections of these vessels.
