  • Title: [Reconstructive surgery of the deep femoral artery in the treatment of arteriosclerotic occlusions of the femoropopliteal segment].
    Author: Karvanen ES, Butylkin AA.
    Journal: Khirurgiia (Mosk); 1989 Mar; (3):32-5. PubMed ID: 2657195.
    Abstract:
    The work analyzes the results of 29 reconstructions of the profunda femoris artery (PFA) which were performed for acute and chronic occlusions of the femoropopliteal arterial segment in elderly patients with stage III-IV atherosclerosis obliterans and marked concomitant pathological conditions. The cumulative rate of patency of the zone of reconstruction was studied in late follow-up periods of up to 5 years. The authors determined the indications and contraindications for isolated PFA plastics. The superficial veins of the upper extremity served as the plastic material.
