Internal Contralateral Bypass Circuit. In other settings, the superficial femoral artery may be diseased and totally occluded — not an uncommon finding in patients with CAD — which may ...

Distal endarterectomy and saphenous-vein patch-graft angioplasty has been carried to the level of the profunda femoris artery, which acts as the outflow tract. Figure 2.

The superficial femoral artery is almost totally occluded, but the profunda femoris and its branches are patent. This outflow proved adequate for an aortofemoral bypass.

Separate longitudinal incisions were made infrainguinally for endarterectomy on the SFA and profunda femoris artery (PFA), sometimes with the addition of a PTFE patch. (Enlarge Image) Figure 1.

At our institution, every case is approached with the percutaneous method in mind, but there is a low threshold to convert if bleeding, stenosis, ischemia, or femoral artery injury occurs. [] In ...

New data suggest that endovascular interventions of the common femoral and profunda femoris arteries can be performed safely and with a high degree of technical success. The pooled analysis ...
