  • Title: [Arterialization of venous blood flow in the foot in the treatment of severe ischemia in patients with crural arterial occlusions and non-functioning plantar arch].
    Author: Pokrovskiĭ AV, Dan VN, Khorovets AG, Chupin AV.
    Journal: Khirurgiia (Mosk); 1990 May; (5):35-42. PubMed ID: 2391935.
    Abstract:
    The article analyses 32 clinical cases with severe ischemia in patients with occlusion of the leg and foot arteries, which was treated by arterialization and reversion of the venous blood flow in the outlets of the great saphenous vein. The operative techniques are described in detail. The complications occurring after arterialization of the venous blood flow of the foot are analysed and reliable methods for their prevention and treatment are suggested. Circulation was compensated 2 years after arterialization in 25 among the 32 patients who were operated on, which points to the high efficacy of this operation in occlusion of the distal arterial channel.
