Abstract

in our clinic; /rom january 1992 to may 1999, 14 patients underwent surgical treatment lor chronic juxtarenal total aor­ tic occlusion.

in ali patients the surgical procedure performed was aortabifemoral bypass, in order to obtain direcı aortic revascu­ larisation. Proksimal anastomoses were end ıo end in 11 patients, and in 3 patients, whose lesions were at the back side of aorta, were end to side. Distal anastomoses were performed as direct anastomoses to femoral artery or pro­ fundoplasty. Dacron or PTFE were used as graft material.

There were no operative mortality. The patients were followed up lora median of 47+ 4.3 months. There was 1 late death. Grafts were found to be patent in periodical controls.

We concluded that: in almost ali patients with chronic juxtarenal total aortic occlusion, the cause of the proximal occ­ lusive lesion was secondary thrombus and the surgical treatment of this lesion consist of thrombectomy and rutin graft implantation.
