[Endarterectomy from the distal arterial bed in prosthetics of the aorta and iliac arteries].
The work presents an experience with surgical treatment of 32 patients with critical ischemia of the lower extremities developed against the background of two-levels occlusive lesion of the arterial bed of the lower extremities. All the patients had atherosclerosis. Occlusion of the abdominal part of the aorta was the cause of reconstruction of the aorta and iliac arteries in 15 patients, occlusion of the iliac artery - in 14 patients, aneurysm of the abdominal aorta - in 3 patients. In all the patients the proximal lesion was associated with occlusion of the femoral arteries. In addition to proximal reconstruction, retrograde endarterectomy was made with a special instrument from the femoral arteries through the arteriotomy opening intended for distal anastomosis of a synthetic prosthesis. Complete revascularisation of the arterial bed of the lower extremities was obtained in all the patients. There were no lethal outcomes.
