  • Title: [Crossed femoro-femoral shunts].
    Author: Shval'b PG, Tsoĭ VN.
    Journal: Vestn Khir Im I I Grek; 1986 May; 136(5):44-9. PubMed ID: 3750679.
    Abstract:
    The article analyzes 100 operations of crossed femoro-femoral shunts in patients with atherosclerotic occlusion of iliac arteries. It is concluded that the operation is indicated to patients with high operative risk as well as to patients with acute thrombosis of the iliac artery or a branch of the bifurcation prosthesis in cases with impossible adequate thrombectomy. The syndrome of "overflow" was shown to appear, but it had a subclinical course. Long-term results of the operation show that the operation of crossed femoro-femoral shunt must be given its due place among reconstructive operations.
