[Aorto-bi-subclavian bypass in the treatment of left subclavian steal syndrome and stenosis of the innominate artery].
Authors report a case of a left side subclavian steal syndrome, caused by occlusion of the subclavian artery, combined with a high grade stenosis of the innominate artery. The rare combination of arteriosclerotic lesions of the supraaortic arteries have been treated by an aorto-bisubclavian bypass procedure performed from a median sternotomy. This is the first publication of this method in the Hungarian surgical literature.
