title: [Delayed results after implantation of bifurcated prosthesis in aorto-iliac incompetence].
abstract: Early results and those seen after a 5-year follow up are discussed. Three hundred fifty one patients with aortoiliac incompetence were treated with the implantation of bifurcated aortoiliac prosthesis. Very favourable early result was achieved in 284 (81%) patients. Very favourable delayed effect was noted in 133 patients, i.e. in 75% of patients who reported for the control examination. In the follow up period, amputation of the limb was performed in 30 (8.5%) patients because of progressing ischemia. Hundred thirty seven (39%) followed up patients died during 5 years. Causes of so high mortality rate are discussed in view of risk factors and postoperative complications.
