[New transplantation materials for reconstructive arterial surgery].
For reconstruction of femoral artery occlusion autologous vena saphena is the best material. In all cases of reocclusion after autologous vein bypass or in cases without adequate vena saphena the heterologous Solco-Collagen-Graft and the new alloplastic Gore-Tex-Teflon arterial prosthesis are two alternative materials. First clinical experiences with the Gore-Tex-Graft in 45 patients and clinical experiences with the bovine Solco-Graft in 54 patients are presented. Both the bovine Solco-Graft and the alloplastic Gore-Tex-Graft provided a patency rate of 75% in patients with chronic arterial diseases state III-IV after 1 year. The special indications for either heterologous bovine Solco-Graft or alloplastic Gore-Tex-prosthesis are demonstrated.
