[Long-term results of femoro-tibial reconstructions].
Results of 136 femoro-tibial bypasses performed in 127 patients were analyzed. There were the following complications: lethal outcome (1.5%) due to myocardial infarction, thrombosis of shunts (10.3%). Surgery with "in situ" technique has demonstrated the best patency of femoro-tibial autovenous bypasses (68.7%). Combination of femoro-tibial bypass with lumbar sympathectomy and creation of arterio-venous fistula leads to improvement of bypasses function in long-term period after surgery.
