LATE EMBOLECTOMY FOR LIMB OR KNEE SALVAGE IN ACUTE LOWER LIMB ISCHEMIA: A NEW PROTOCOL
Embolectomy has long been the gold standard for treating limbs acutely threatened by arterial occlusion. Delayed embolectomy has not been investigated adequately due to the belief that accompanying mortality and morbidity render the case futile. Following our previous experience with late arterial repair for leg or knee salvage I we applied the same principle to limbs threatened with prolo...
متن کاملLATE ARTERIAL REPAIR FOR LOWER LIMB OR KNEE SALVAGE
The objective of this report is to prove that even after development of ischemic necrosis of the muscles and nerves, we can still save the extremity or the knee and even several days after arterial injury, perform arterial repair and other mentioned procedures. Thus we can retain a functionally satisfactory leg or knee joint, which is far better than classic above-knee amputation and utili...
متن کاملComposite sequential arterial reconstruction for limb salvage.
OBJECTIVE Autogenous vein is the conduit of choice in patients presenting for infrainguinal arterial reconstruction. Venous conduit may be limited because of inadequacy or prior utilization. Our group and others use prosthetics to maximize limb salvage with moderate results. However, in cases where patients present with an isolated popliteal segment that may extend below the knee, we have perfo...
متن کاملLimb salvage arterial surgery for gangrene.
IN THIS paper we are concerned with the management of the severely ischaemic state resulting from chronic occlusive arterial disease. For all practical purposes this means atherosclerotic obliteration of the arterial supply to the lower limb. In general, atherosclerosis of the peripheral arteries is a relatively benign disease, and the collateral circulation compensates well for the loss of the...
