[Arterialization technic of the venous net work in the foot].
The amputation of the lower extermity can be avoided in many patients, particularly in diabetics by means of the arterialization of thevenous net of the foot, whenever the classic techniques of revascularization cannot been used for the magnitud of the arterial lesions below the knee. This arterialization uses two venous autografts: one in the leg functionning as a channel and the second functionning as a regulator or a temporary discharge. This technique, used in three diabetic patients with gangrenous lesions of the foot, has allowed to avoid amputation in two of them.
