Endovascular management of axillofemoral bypass graft stump syndrome.
OBJECTIVE Upper extremity embolic complications of occluded axillofemoral bypass grafts are infrequent. However, traditional management of dissection of axillary anastomosis for removal of the stump can be challenging. We report two patients with critical upper extremity ischemia secondary to stump syndrome and its successful management with endovascular techniques. METHODS One hundred fifty-...
متن کاملRepeat axillofemoral grafting as treatment for axillofemoral graft occlusion.
BACKGROUND Patency of failed axillofemoral (ax-fem) grafts following thrombectomy is so poor, aortofemoral grafts are recommended as treatment for ax-fem graft thrombosis. In patients who are not candidates for aortic grafting, repeat ax-fem grafting is an alternative to thrombectomy. This report compares our experience treating ax-fem graft thrombosis with replacement or revision vs thrombecto...
متن کاملAxillofemoral bypass with local anesthesia: a way forward to enable limb salvage in high-risk patients
For an active, ambulant patient with critical, lower limb ischemia, amputation can lead to a poor quality of life. A small group of older people with critical limb ischemia are considered at high risk for revascularization under conventional anesthesia owing to their comorbid conditions. In these cases, when endovascular therapy is not an option, the decision to amputate or revascularize presen...
متن کاملAxillofemoral Bypass to Treat Severe Heart Failure Caused by Takayasu's Arteritis
Takayasu's arteritis is an inflammatory vasculitis that primarily affects the aorta and its major branches. Involvement of the thoracic and abdominal aortas, although rare, causes marked hypertension and may lead to severe heart failure. We report the improvement of cardiac function after axillofemoral bypass grafting in a 59-year-old woman who had this condition.
متن کاملAxillofemoral bypass in elderly patients with local anesthesia: an alternative route to less risk
Background The evolution of medical and minimally invasive techniques have led to improved outcomes in limb salvage in elderly patients. In particular, has improved the overall survival of the patients and life expectancy. The patient with major amputation have high rates of mortality and morbidity and health care cost with a considerable impact on society. The work presented here concerns elde...
