[Surgery of infectious complications in prostheses in the abdominal aorta].
The authors describe the successful solution of a serious and feared complication, i.e. infection of a vascular prosthesis. A hitherto not used procedure was adopted-concurrent removal of the infected prosthesis and restoration of the blood flow into both extremities by an extra-anatomical axillobiiliac bypass. The authors draw attention to the advantages of this method in context with possible future solutions; and with regard to the hitherto not complicated postoperative course they assume that this type of treatment could be final. At the same time they draw attention to the complexity of the problem from the diagnostic and therapeutic aspect.
