Thoracic Aortobifemoral Bypass in Treatment of Juxtarenal Leriche Syndrome (Midterm Results)

Abstract

Conclusion: TABFB precludes the risk of renal artery embolization in cases of juxtarenal obstruction, without adding any risk of morbidity and mortality. Its long-term patency is similar or even superior to conventional surgical bypass techniques. We propose its use as an initial treatment in juxtarenal Leriche syndrome as well as a remedial procedure in cases with previous AABFB graft occlusion.
