Arteriosclerosis Obliterans↗

Peripheral arteriosclerosis; arterial grafting procedures; indications and results. II. Arteriosclerotic arterial occlusion.

Arteriosclerotic thrombotic lesions involving the arteries to the lower extremities may be conveniently grouped into three categories. Lesions of the aorta-common-iliac level (Category I) appear to be most satisfactorily treated by thromboendarterectomy. Lesions in the femoral artery (Category II) are particularly amenable to bypass arterial grafts. Advanced lesions (Category III) involving both areas may be treated by one or the other method or a combination of both. Aortography is a necessary prerequisite in the selection of patients for operation and the determination of the method of surgical approach.
