ABSTRACT
One hundred and thirty-two PTFE bifurcated prosthetic grafts were implanted during the course of a bicentre study conducted at the abovenamed institutions from 1982 to 1986. The study included 118 males and 14 females with an average age of 62 years. One hundred and eighteen patients suffered from aorto-iliac occlusive disease and 14 from abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). Five patients had already undergone previous surgery (redo operations), with extirpation of thrombosed Dacron prostheses. Proximal end to end anastomoses were fashioned in 94 cases (71.2%), while end to side anastomoses were performed in 38 cases (28.8%). The distal anastomoses were to the iliac arteries in 11 cases, the common femoral artery in 89 cases and the deep femoral artery in 32 cases.
