[Sexual function disorders after vascular reconstruction in the aortoiliac region]

100 male patients who had undergone aorto-iliac surgery were asked by a questionnaire concerning their sexual life. Stenoses or obstructions of the iliac arteries preoperatively demonstrated in 70% could be shown to be connected with sexual disorders, which increased after operation. Especially in patients of younger age the reperfusion of the internal iliac arteries should be taken into consideration.
