Abstract
|
|
|
Infection after reconstructive surgery is one of the most catastrophic postoperative complication in vascular surgery. Mortality rates reported from a world-wide experience range between 25 and 88 percent. The surgeon faced with such a
complication
must
choose among many diagnostic and management options to maximize limb salvage and survival based on the presentation and site of the infection, the degree of ischemia of the lower extremities, and the overall medical condition of the patient.
We successfully managed with descending thoracic aorta-to-bifemoral arteries bypass after the entire removal of the infected axillo-bifemoral graft because of bypass graft infection. (Korean J Thoracic Cardiovas Surg 1993;26:552-6)
