High aortoiliac occlusion: treatment with thoracic aorta to femoral arterial bypass.

Abstract

Bifurcation bypass grafting from the thoracic aorta to femoral arteries provides excellent revascularization in the presence of high aortoiliac occlusive disease. Two such cases are described. There were no postoperative complications and the follow-up aortograms showed well-functioning grafts.
