Mechanical thromboprophylaxis is sufficient to prevent the lower extremity deep vein thrombosis after kidney transplantation
PURPOSE Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a severe and common complication that occurs after the major operation. Despite the commonality of DVT there is limited data on the incidence of DVT after kidney transplantation (KT). Furthermore, most studies have been retrospective in design and were conducted in western countries. The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence of lower extremity DVT...
متن کاملIs completion arteriography mandatory reversed-vein bypass grafting? after
Many surgeons advocate uniform performance of operative completion arteriography after leg bypass surgery to ensure technical success and to optimize shortand intermediate-term graft patency. To determine the impact of this practice on the outcome of reversed-vein bypass surgery and associated patient charges, we reviewed our series of consecutive nonemergent leg bypass procedures. Ninety-three...
متن کاملIs duplex surveillance of value after leg vein bypass grafting? Principal results of the Vein Graft Surveillance Randomised Trial (VGST).
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to assess the benefits of duplex compared with clinical vein graft surveillance in terms of amputation rates, quality of life, and healthcare costs in patients after femoropopliteal and femorocrural vein bypass grafts. METHODS AND RESULTS This was a multicenter, prospective, randomized, controlled trial. A total of 594 patients with a patent vein graft...

متن کاملLower extremity autologous vein bypass for critical limb ischemia is not adversely affected by prior endovascular procedure.
OBJECTIVE It has been reported that a failed endovascular intervention adversely affects results of lower extremity bypass (LEB). We reviewed rates of prior endovascular intervention (PEI) in patients undergoing LEB with autologous vein for critical limb ischemia (CLI) to determine effects on graft patency, limb salvage, and amputation-free survival. METHODS Retrospective review was conducted...
