Below knee femoropopliteal bypass with glutaraldehyde-tanned modified human umbilical vein (Dardik-Biograft) – experience with the modified prosthesis
Fur den kniegelenkuberschreitenden peripheren Bypass ist die V. saphena magna des Transplantat der ersten Wahl. Bei fehlender autologer Vene ist die denaturierte humane Umbilikalvene (HUV) neben rein synthetischen Gefasprothesen eine selten erwogene Alternative zum autologen Gefasersatz. Zur Beurteilung ihrer langfristigen Bypassfunktion und degenerativer Veranderungen erfolgte bei nicht geeigneter V. saphena magna die Verwendung der denaturierten humanen Umbilikalvene bei kniegelenkuberschreitenden femoropoplitealen Bypassoperationen. Bei 54 Patienten wurden 55 kniegelenkuberschreitende femoropopliteale Bypassoperationen mit Umbilikalvene durchgefuhrt. Die Operationsindikation bestand uber…
Extremitätenerhalt durch pedalen In-situ-Bypass beim diabetischen Fußsyndrom
INTRODUCTION: Treatment of the ischemic diabetic foot syndrome still represents a medical and economic challenge. Contrary to the aims of the Saint Vincent declaration a dramatic reduction of major amputations in Germany was not noted, although in the diabetic patients the predominant type of tibial artery occlusion allows construction of pedal bypasses for limb salvage. METHOD: In patients with ischemic diabetic foot syndrome following angiographic evaluation of the ischemic limb, the indication for surgical revascularisation of patent pedal arteries was established. The in-situ technique was preferred in the presence of a suitable ipsilateral greater saphenous vein whenever possible. Reva…
Use and durability of femoral vein for autologous reconstruction with infection of the aortoiliofemoral axis.
Objective To analyze early and late mortality, venous morbidity, reinfection, and freedom from reintervention after using the femoral vein (FV) for vascular reconstruction with infection of the aortoiliofemoral axis. Methods By reviewing our database, 86 patients could be identified with implantation of FV grafts in infected fields between November 1995 and July 2012. The patient records were retrospectively analyzed and follow-up information obtained from patients or their general physician. Seventy-one patients presented with prosthetic graft infection and 15 with an infected aneurysm. For data analysis, patients were divided into an aortoiliac (n = 67) and a femoral group (n = 19). Study…
Der kurze popliteodistale Venenbypass beim diabetischen Fußsyndrom DFS
Purpose: World wide increase of diabetes compound with diabetic foot syndrome becomes a challenge in vascular surgery to avoid limb loss. In diabetics a special pattern of atherosclerosis is prevalent with disease limited to the infrageniculate arteries but sparing inflow vessels and distal tibial and pedal arteries. This provides short bypass grafting from popliteal to tibial and pedal arteries, a concept first described by F. Veith in 1981. Methods: Diabetics with severe atherosclerotic disease and limb-threatening ischemia got general evaluation and vascular imaging. Falling in this special category the patients underwent short vein bypass grafting originating at the first or third popli…
External reinforcement of varicose veins with PTFE prosthesis in infrainguinal bypass surgery -- clinical results.
OBJECTIVE Segmental varicose degeneration of the autogenous greater saphenous vein may limit its use in infrainguinal bypass surgery. Wrapping a PTFE prosthesis around dilated veins has emerged as an option to create externally reinforced vein bypasses. Results regarding graft patency and limb salvage were analyzed. METHODS Between September 1995 and January 2001, 35 infrainguinal bypass operations in 33 patients were performed with greater saphenous veins exhibiting segmental varicose dilatation. Grafts were followed by duplex scan and retrospective analysis of graft patency and limb salvage was performed. RESULTS One bypass prompted successful revision for early occlusion. Four bypasses r…
Sequential Femorodistal Composite Bypass with Second Generation Glutaraldehyde Stabilized Human Umbilical Vein (HUV)
Abstract Objective To evaluate the performance of sequential composite bypasses with second generation glutaraldehyde stabilized human umbilical vein (HUV) and autologous vein. Design Retrospective study of consecutive patients, in a single centre. Patients From January 1998 to December 2003, 54 femoro-distal HUV-autologous vein sequential composite bypasses were constructed in 52 patients with critical leg ischemia and absence of sufficient length of autologous vein. Methods All infra-inguinal bypass operations were registered in a computerized database and prospectively followed. Bypasses using sequential HUV-composite technique were reviewed for graft patency, limb salvage and patient su…
Endovaskuläre Aneurysmatherapie - Langzeitergebnisse nach 7 Jahren
Hintergrund: Seit der Entwicklung von Stentprothesen und deren kommerzieller Verfugbarkeit 1994 gibt es eine neue, sich zunehmend verbreitende endovaskulare Methode der Aneurysmatherapie.
Krurale und pedale Bypasschirurgie bei kritischer Isch�mie und nicht heilenden Fu�l�sionen
Die Ischamie ist der haufigste Grund fur nicht heilende Lasionen an den Fusen. Mit der weltweiten Zunahme vaskularer Erkrankungen und insbesondere des diabetischen Fussyndroms steigt auch die Zahl der Patienten, die durch eine Revaskularisation geheilt werden konnen, momentan aber uberwiegend (25.000/Jahr in Deutschland) amputiert werden. In den letzten Jahrzehnten sind in der Gefaschirurgie subtile Methoden entwickelt worden, die auch eine Revaskularisation und Bypassoperationen bei Patienten mit einem distalen Verschlusstyp, der immer haufiger und gerade beim Diabetiker angetroffenen wird, zulassen. Eine besondere Rolle spielt hier der Venenbypass aus V. saphena magna oder alternativen Ve…
