Popis: |
Remote endarterectomy is an endovascular, minimally invasive approach in the treatment of obliterated femoral artery. Successful revascularization of the superficial femoral artery achieved by the procedure of remote endarterectomy using the Mollring Cutter device, followed by endoluminal stent positioning at the distal intimal flap, is described. A 72-year-old man with obliteration of the right femoral artery and intermittent claudication was operated on with this endovascular procedure. The operation lasted 70 minutes. The postoperative period was uneventful. A 64-yearold man with obliteration of the femoral artery and ischemic ulcers on the same leg underwent the same procedure, which took 68 minutes. Peripheral pulses were normal at discharge. |
