[Combination of visceral surgical procedures with reconstructive artery surgery (author's transl)]

The combination of visceral surgery procedures together with reconstructive artery surgery is recommended on the basis of the experiences with 16 simultaneous operations of this kind. An increasing risk of infection during such simultaneous operations may be prohibited by special surgical techniques. The good cooperation between general surgeons and vascular surgeons and a very restrictive indication for such simultaneous operations are of greatest importance.
