  • Title: [Surgical treatment of peripheral arterial occlusive diseases].
    Author: Tuchmann A, Dinstl K.
    Journal: Fortschr Med; 1983 Nov 17; 101(43):1958-61, 1964. PubMed ID: 6654296.
    Abstract:
    Within a period of 18 months 75 operations (25 aorto-femoral, 50 femoro-popliteo-crural reconstructions) were performed: early failure in lower limb reconstructions 8% (rate of amputation 4%), operative mortality 2,7%. Only 15% of the patients had claudication, 85% rest pain or gangrene. Because of the low number of reinterventions (8% postoperative rethrombosis or hemorrhage), the 2,7% mortality and the reasonable 20-2 months' follow-up results (83% good function) we believe that arterial reconstructive surgery has a place in the field of operative activities of a municipal hospital.
