Long-term evaluation of composite sequential bypass for limb-threatening ischemia

Fig. 1 Anastomosis of PTFE material above the knee is ideal. Venous conduit is then used to most proximal tibial vessel providing patency to foot.

Fig. 2 Popliteal anastomosis with PTFE does not require substantial runoff. In this case, an endarterectomy provided an extremely blind segment. Nevertheless, extended patency of distal anastomosis was achieved and maintained.

Fig. 3 Lesser saphenous vein is easily located midway between lateral malleolus and Achilles tendon. An initial incision between these two landmarks is then extended along the vein into posterior calf.

Fig. 4 Composite sequential format allows lesser saphenous vein to be used for far distal reconstructions. Anastomosis to posterior tibial artery just above the ankle allowed perfusion for toe amputation healing.

Fig. 5 In situ management of lesser saphenous vein is possible with proximal anastomosis anastomosed to a PTFE graft in below-knee popliteal position. This in situ bypass provided flow to peroneal artery.

Fig. 6 Prosthetic grafting to below-knee popliteal may be necessary because of arterial anatomy or lack of available vein length. Making the middle two anastomoses nearly adjacent will maximize flow through entire PTFE graft.

Fig. 7 Cumulative life table primary patency. The standard error remained less than 10% until after 48 months (dotted line).

Fig. 8 Retained patency of distal venous segment has been demonstrated frequently after proximal PTFE thrombosis. This extremity was studied with digital subtraction angiography as compared with its full patency 2 years before on completion arteriogram (Fig. 9). Retained distal patency facilitates technical repair.
