[The dacron-velour (Sauvage) prosthesis].

G Gyurkó, J Alemany

    Acta Chirurgica Academiae Scientiarum Hungaricae
    |January 1, 1980
    PubMed
    Summary

    Dacron-velour (Sauvage) prostheses offer a viable alternative to traditional artificial veins for vascular reconstructions, particularly in lower limb revascularization when autologous veins are unavailable or unsuitable. These prostheses show promise, especially when combined with autologous veins for distal bypasses.

    Area of Science:

    • Vascular Surgery
    • Biomaterials Science
    • Surgical Innovation

    Context:

    • Evaluation of Dacron-velour (Sauvage) prostheses in 100 patients for vascular reconstruction.
    • Focus on lower limb revascularization and supra-aortic bridging procedures.
    • Comparison with traditional artificial veins and autologous vein grafts.

    Purpose:

    • To assess the efficacy and advantages of Dacron-velour prostheses in various vascular applications.
    • To determine indications for Dacron-velour prosthesis use, especially when autologous options are limited.
    • To explore the combined use of prostheses and autologous veins for complex reconstructions.

    Summary:

    • Dacron-velour prostheses were implanted in 100 patients, with a significant portion for lower limb vascular reconstruction.
    • Prostheses demonstrated utility in obturator, axillo-femoral (popliteal), and supra-aortic bridging.
    • Indications include femoro-popliteal sections lacking suitable autologous veins or when thrombendarterectomy is contraindicated/unsatisfactory.

    Impact:

    • Dacron-velour prostheses present advantages over traditional artificial veins in specific vascular applications.
    • Combined use with autologous veins shows promising results for distal bypasses down to the tibial arteries.
    • This study highlights the role of synthetic grafts in expanding treatment options for critical limb ischemia.
