[Direct aortopopliteal shunts. A report on 11 cases (author's transl)].
Direct aortopopliteal shunts were carried out in 11 patients, either by primary operation when implantation into the deep femoral was assessed as being arteriographically or operatively dangerous, or as a secondary procedure following fracture of a unilateral or bilateral aortofemoral shunt operation. Permeability was restored for long periods in the majority of the cases, which suggests that results obtained by this type of shunt are very similar to those observed after reconstruction of the deep femoral.
