title: [Repeated operations after reconstructive interventions on the aortofemoral segment].
abstract: At the department of vascular surgery of the Novgorod regional hospital 455 reconstructive operations for atherosclerotic occlusions in the aorto-femoral segment were performed at the period from 1984 to 1991. Specific complications requiring reconstructive reoperations took place in 92 patients (20.2%), 21 patients (4.6%) having earlier specific complications and 71 patients (15.6%)--late ones. Causes of the appearance of the specific complications are analyzed, the methods of treatment of such patients are recommended. Lethality after reoperations for late complications made up 9.8%, amputation of the extremity was performed in 14.1% of the patients. The positive result of the reoperations with a regress of ischemia and the preserved function of the extremity was noted in 76.1% of the patients.
