Autovenous bypass surgery for occlusive lesions of the femoral and popliteal arteries
The results of 89 bypass grafting operations with a reversed autovein in occlusions of the femoral and popliteal arteries were analyzed. The immediate results were recognized as good and satisfactory in 84% of patients, long-term - in 64%. The reasons for the immediate poor results are technical errors and infection, the deterioration of long-term results is associated with the progression of the underlying disease and unjustifiably extended indications for operations. The great saphenous vein in most cases is quite suitable for bypass surgery.
