title: [Combination of endovascular procedures with open vascular surgery].
abstract: The combination of open surgery with endoluminal catheter techniques offers new chances in the treatment of multi-staged arterial occlusive disease. We report our experiences in 205 patients. In n = 125 patients TEA or bypass were undertaken in the groin with simultaneous catheter intervention proximally or distally. In 31 patients the operation was carried out above knee and in 49 cases below knee. 94 patients with an open operation in the groin and simultaneous iliac catheter interventions are in the follow up. For these interventions the combined secondary patency rate was 77 % after three years.
