| Description | The authors evaluate a group of 110 patients to whom a pedal bypass was implanted in the period from October 2000 to July 2009. In all cases the limb was at risk of high amputation and the possibilities of endovascular and conservative therapy were exhausted. No patient died during the procedure, early postoperative mortality was 1.8%. During the course of the monitoring of the group (average duration 30 +- 26.4 months, interval 1.2 - 91.2 months) 21 bypass occlusions occurred, of which in 8 cases the patency of the bypass was restored by an early intervention. In the reference period the cumulative probability of primary and secondary patency of pedal bypasses is 67.2% and 69.5%, the cumulative probability of limb salvage with a pedal bypass surgery is 78.0%. A part of the study is a statistical evaluation of the data and findings how the primary and secondary patency of pedal bypasses and the probability of the limb salvage are influenced by diabetes mellitus. |
