Hybrid surgery for acute iliofemoral artery thrombosis (case report)
AbstractOne of the main causes of acute arterial thrombosis of the lower extremity is an occlusive stenotic atherosclerotic vascular lesion. Thrombosis in this situation can develop on the background of the existing chronic limb ischemia, as well as in the absence thereof, manifesting as intense pain in the leg. The article presents a clinical case report regarding successful application of hybrid surgery for subacute thrombosis of the external iliac and common femoral arteries against the background of their atherosclerotic asymptomatic lesion. This method was chosen due to the exclusion of the embolic nature of ischemia and the impossibility of the isolated use of endovascular revascularization methods. The result was complete sustainable regression of clinical symptoms, achieved by combining thrombectomy, as an open stage of surgery, with endovascular stenting in the area of an unstable plaque.
