Abstract:
Thirty-four simultaneous vascular operations were performed from 1993 to 1996. Postoperative complications were similar to additive complication rates of carotid endarterectomies and other vascular operations undertaken during this period. Operation time and postoperative hospital stay was significantly shorter, and cost-benefit analysis revealed clear advantages for the simultaneous group.
