Revascularization for Lower Limb Peripheral Arterial Disease

Revascularization in the Diabetic Lower Limb

Direct Revascularization With the Angiosome Concept for Lower Limb Ischemia

The angiosome concept provides practical information regarding the vascular anatomy of reconstructive and vascular surgery for the treatment of peripheral arterial occlusive disease and, particularly, critical lower limb ischemia.The aim of the study was to confirm the efficacy of direct revascularization with the angiosome concept (DR) for lower limb ischemia.Complementary manual searches were...

The tourniquet revisited as an adjunct to lower limb revascularization.

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the role and efficacy of the tourniquet in lower limb revascularization. METHODS During a 3-year period, 195 patients underwent 205 infrainguinal reconstruction operations in the lower extremity. These patients underwent bypass with a tourniquet and inflow occlusion (group 1) or bypass without a tourniquet (group 2). The type of infrainguinal ...

Perioperative lower limb venous haemodynamics in patients under general anaesthesia.

BACKGROUND This study prospectively determined the haemodynamic changes in the lower limb venous circulation during and shortly after elective abdominal surgery, performed under general anaesthesia. METHODS Ten females, aged 36-65 yr, ASA I or II, undergoing total abdominal hysterectomy had their peak, mean and minimum velocities, diameter, volume flow and venous pulsatility (peak-minimum/mea...
