REVASCULARIZATION IN EXTENDED OCCLUSIONS OF THE SUPERFICIAL PART OF THE FEMORAL ARTERY AND MULTI-STOREY LESIONS OF THE ARTERIES OF THE LOWER EXTREMITY

Abstract

This paper presents the results of hybrid vascular interventions performed in patients with critical lower limb ischemia at the Limb Rescue Center based on the GBUZ “City Hospital No. 14”. Hybrid vascular operations were performed in 40 patients (10 women [25%], 30 men [75%]; age 45-88 years, average 69.5 years). All patients were operated on for critical ischemia (stage 4 according to A.V. Pokrovsky) of one lower limb. A series of 46 autovenous femoral-tibial shunts performed in the clinic during the same time period were used as a control group. The long-term result of femoral-tibial bypass surgery (survival without amputation and patency) was evaluated 1 year after surgery. The 30-day mortality rate in operated patients was 2.5%.
