    This study reviewed Leriche syndrome treatment, finding thrombectomy with Dacron bypasses effective. The direct transabdominal approach is recommended to prevent renal complications and maintain graft patency.

    Area of Science:

    • Vascular Surgery
    • Cardiovascular Medicine

    Background:

    • Leriche syndrome, characterized by total infrarenal aortic thrombosis, primarily affects heavy smokers.
    • Previous treatment outcomes for Leriche syndrome were associated with significant morbidity, including renal complications and mortality.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the surgical outcomes of thrombectomy with aortoiliac or aortofemoral Dacron bypasses for Leriche syndrome.
    • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of a specific surgical technique and perioperative management.

    Main Methods:

    • A retrospective review of 16 patients with Leriche syndrome treated between 1960 and 1976.
    • Surgical intervention involved thrombectomy with Dacron bypasses (aortoiliac or aortofemoral).
    • Perioperative management included hydration, mannitol, furosemide, and heparin; intraoperative renal artery occlusion was employed.

    Main Results:

    • The surgical technique resulted in no deaths or renal complications in the reviewed cases.
    • Graft patency was high, with 92% of Dacron bypasses remaining open postoperatively.
    • Comparison with earlier cases indicated a reduction in renal complications and mortality.

    Conclusions:

    • Thrombectomy with Dacron bypasses via a direct transabdominal approach is a safe and effective treatment for Leriche syndrome.
    • The recommended technique, including perioperative management and renal artery occlusion, significantly reduces complications.
    • This approach is favored over extraanatomic bypass to prevent further aortic thrombosis propagation and potential visceral infarction.
