[Use of the human umbilical vein in arterial surgery of the lower extremities].

The article presents results of using the human umbilical vein for plasty of lower extremity arteries. There were 44 operations on 43 patients. In 22 cases the prosthesis of the umbilical vein was used for the femoro-popliteal shunts and in 22 cases for femoro-femoral shunts. In 18 patients the shunts were potent within 6 years of the followup observation which demonstrates good prospects of using the human umbilical vein in reconstructive surgery of the vessels of small and medium diameter.
