Abstract:
Interest in minimally invasive procedures for vascular disease has grown tremendously over the past few years. Herein, we report our initial experience with a thoracoscopically-assisted thoraco-femoral bypass in a larger animal model. Included are various approaches to a final recommendation for the technique.
