Surgical revascularization is the primary mode of treatment for patients with severe limb ischemia. The objective of the surgical procedure is to bypass a blockage in an occluded major vessel by constructing an alternate route for blood flow using an artificial graft.

2014年3月15日 · Axillofemoral bypass is a method of surgical revascularization used in the setting of symptomatic aortoiliac occlusive disease for patients who have no endovascular option or who...

2016年8月25日 · Axillofemoral bypass (AxFB), a bypass graft from one axillary artery to one or both femoral arteries, was first performed in the early 1960s in patients at high cardiopulmonary risk for surgery as an alternative to the more direct reconstructive operation, an …

The axillofemoral bypass operation has relatively high postoperative mortality rates but acceptable patency outcomes in our study. The high mortality rates are partially explained by an already short life expectancy of patients.

An aortofemoral bypass is the placement of a graft connecting your aorta and one of both femoral arteries in your pelvis to bypass a diseased vessel and increase blood flow to your legs. The aorta is accessed through an incision down the middle or side of your abdomen.

2019年2月19日 · A axillo-bifemoral/femoral bypass is typically undertaken when there is significant aortic occlusion or bilateral iliac occlusion in a patient not fit or suitable for aortic surgery. It involves dissection of the axillary artery as well as the common femoral arteries.

Your surgeon has recommended a bypass operation because you have blockage in the abdominal aorta and/or iliac arteries. This operation involves creating a new tube for blood to flow to your leg, bypassing (avoiding) the section of the artery that is narrow or blocked.

2017年12月27日 · Axillofemoral bypasses (AxFBs) have been used since 1962 to treat aortoiliac disease. In the past, reported patency rates (37%-76%) for these extra-anatomic grafts have been inferior to those for anatomic aortic grafting.

2023年4月20日 · Axillo-femoral bypass is a surgical procedure that is used to bypass a section of the artery in the abdomen when it is blocking blood flow to the legs. Using a bypass tube or graft inserted under the skin, the surgeon connects the blood supply from the axillary artery of the arm to the femoral arteries in the groin, thus creating a new pathway ...

2015年11月3日 · Traditionally, axillofemoral or axillobifemoral bypass has been an approach to treat patients with high open surgical risk with threatened limbs due to aortoiliac occlusive disease, infected in situ aortic grafts, or intra-abdominal sepsis.
