Popis: | This is the case of a severe Pseudomonas aeruginosa biological vascular graft infection, completely involving the perianastomotic tract of a femoro — femoral crossover bypass and resulting in repeated bleeding from the offended vessel wall. After the failure of a sartorious rotational muscle flap transposition into the infected groin wound, this ‘high-grade’ vascular graft infection was finally treated successfully by wrapping a great saphenous vein patch reinforcement circumferentially around the damaged biological vascular conduit and filling the infected wound with a rectus abdominis myocutaneous muscle flap transposition. The aim of this report is to illustrate this novel, to our knowledge, ‘perivascular venous banding’ technique and to evaluate the prospective of future testing of this surgical procedure. Starting from this singular case, we will also review the role of the rotational muscle flaps in the conservative management of major vascular graft infections. |
