[Contribution of digital intravenous angiography in the assessment of the postoperative results after surgery of the vessels of the neck].
Forty-six patients who had undergone neck vessel surgery were investigated postoperatively by intravenous digitalised angiography. In 30 patients an endarterectomy had been performed and in one case the examination did not provide satisfactory opacification of the carotid vessels. In 29 cases the result was of satisfactory quality: the appearance of the operative site was normal in 21 patients, dilated in 3, irregular in 7 and stenosed in 1. Twenty patients had undergone a bypass. There was one failure and 19 results suitable for analysis. The bypass was normal in appearance and permeable in 14 cases, irregular in 1, dilated in 2 and obstructed in 2. Overall, intravenous digitalised angiography provided satisfactory assessment of the operative result in 96% of patients.
