Insights
Arterial collateral pathways provide vital blood supply during vessel obliteration. Their importance and function vary significantly based on the location of the arterial blockage.
Area of Science:
- Vascular Surgery
- Anatomy
- Physiology
Abstract:
Arterial collateral ways are reviewed correlatively with five differents levels of obliteration : aortic, iliac, ilio-femoral, femoro-popliteal, dista. A double visceral and parietal supply system caracterize each obliterated level; the importance of this double system varies considerably with the site of obliteration.
