Popis: To investigate the difference in patency rate between woven and knitted aortofemoral or aortoiliac prosthetic grafts, a special vascular prosthesis was manufactured with one limb of the graft knitted and the other, woven. The prosthesis was implanted in 143 consecutive patients with occlusive aortoiliac arteriosclerotic disease or aneurysms. Detailed statistical analysis failed to reveal any difference in the patency rate between the woven and knitted limbs of the grafts during an observation period ranging from one month to two years.
