Laparoscopic aortobifemoral bypass: An underappreciated treatment option for aortoiliac occlusive disease
Eren Günertem, Hakkı Tankut Akay.
Abstract
Laparoscopic aortobifemoral bypass surgery is a minimally invasive alternative to open surgery and endovascular treatment modalities. It was
first described in the middle of 1990s. Since then, only small number of papers were published evaluating the outcomes of this procedure. In
general, laparoscopic aortobifemoral bypass is a feasible and safe minimally invasive alternative to open surgical approach, when performed
in experienced centers for patients with extensive aortoiliac occlusive disease. In this review, we discuss the current evidences behind this
argument.
