Operations technique on the abdominal aorta. Aorta-femoral bypass. Medication: after surgery all patients are prescribed long-term aspirin (100 mg daily) and clopidogrel for 3 months (75 mg daily).

Standard endovascular treatment (stenting) in patients with the iliac segment occlusive disease. Medication: after stenting all patients are prescribed long-term aspirin (100 mg daily) and clopidogrel for 3 months (75 mg daily).

Access to the femoral artery is performed through a lateral incision from the inguinal ligament. Operations technique on the abdominal aorta.

Aorta-femoral bypass. Proximal anastomosis between the prosthesis and aorta is applied in the sort of "end-to-side" in the reconstruction by shunting.

After jaws prosthesis conduction on hip distal anastomosis is formed with twisting controlling. In a case of preserved antegrade blood flow the femoral artery anastomosis applied in the sort of "end-to-side". If antegrade flow is absent, anastomosis is formed in the sort of "end to end".

Successful implantation of all devices without the need for conversion and with residual stenosis less than 30%

clinically significant bleeding, hematoma, infection of the prosthesis, infection of postoperative wound, lymphorrhea, renal failure, myocardial infarction, stroke, mortality, thrombosis of the operated segment, distal embolism

during the whole 30 days from the date of intervention. confirmation of patency of the arterial ultrasound of the operated segment.

during the whole 30 days from the date of intervention. confirmation of patency of the arterial ultrasound of the operated segment after reintervention due to thrombosis

composite of nonfatal stroke, nonfatal myocardial infarction, and cardiovascular death

preservation of a functional foot, eliminating the necessity for major amputation
