Reconstructive Surgery for Combined Aortofemoral and Infrafemoral Occlusion

Department of Surgery, Nagoya University, Branch Hospital, Nagoya, Japan

In reconstructive surgery for combined aortoiliac and infrafemoral occlu sion, there are many reports that only proximal repair with profunda plasty has resulted in a symptomatic improvement.^1-5 However, the 5-year patency and the limb salvage rate were low, and some surgeons have reported that many patients had remained without symptomatic improvement. ^6-11

This study was made to assess the indication for subsequent repair in peripheral combined lesions and report the prognosis in the reconstructive surgery for tandem lesions.
