Venous grafting in femoropopliteal obstructions: a 16-year experience / P. Settembrini, P. Zannini, M. Pisacreta, R. A. Maruotti, G. Pezzuoli. - In: INTERNATIONAL SURGERY. - ISSN 0020-8868. - 69:3(1984 Jul), pp. 271-275.
Abstract:
Over 15 years, 172 femoropopliteal saphenous vein bypasses were performed on 151 patients with chronic obstructive arterial disease. Follow-up varied from a minimum of six months to a maximum of 12 years. The operative mortality was 1.32%, the survival rates at five and ten years were 66.54% and 33.91% respectively, and the patency at five and ten years was 52.02% and 37.55%. The good results obtained, even in the majority of patients with trophic lesions and/or rest pain, indicate that direct arterial reconstruction should be considered the only effective treatment for saving a limb which would otherwise have to be amputated.
