Abstract:
An original technique consisting in the revascularization of the midpopliteal artery through a posterior approach is described, in patients with critical ischemia of the lower extremities, utilizing a prosthetic substitute. This technique can be regarded as an alternative to the infragenicular revascularization and it is particularly suited for patients with no autologous material available. Two successful cases operated on with this technique are reported, with a 6 months and 1 year follow up and documented patency of the grafts.
