摘要
Although the quality of the distal run-off has been considered as an important factor affecting the success of bypass grafting, reasonable results have nevertheless been reported for bypass grafts to a popliteal artery with no direct communication with the tibial or peroneal vessels (isolated popliteal segment, IPS). The use of autogenous vein has produced the best results in this situation with most authors finding polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) less satisfactory. Improved results have nevertheless been shown for femoro-popliteal and femorotibial PTFE grafts by the incorporation of vein patches into the anastomoses. In this paper, the influence of this technique on the patency of PTFE grafts to IPS is evaluated. Thirty-three PTFE grafts to an IPS and 67 to the below knee (BK) popliteal artery with one or more run-off vessels were studied. All IPS grafts were carried out for limb salvage and in the BK popliteal group, 46 (69%) were for limb salvage and 21 (31%) were for severe claudication. Groups were matched in terms of age, smoking history and prevalence of diabetes mellitus. Cumulative patency rates of 84% at 1 year and 76% at 3 years were achieved in the IPS group compared to 90 and 81% for the BK popliteal group with one or more run-off vessels. Using the Taylor patch technique, comparable 3 year patency rates can be expected for PTFE grafts to IPSs and to BK popliteal arteries with patent tibial or peroneal run-off. © 1993 Grune & Stratton Ltd.
