This chapter covers vascular operations. Treatments described for varicose veins are high tie and multiple avulsions, radio-frequency ablation, and foam sclerotherapy. Repair of elective and ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm and endovascular repair are described. Operations like aortobifemoral bypass, femoral popliteal above- and below-knee bypass graft, and femoro-distal bypass are included. Urgent operations like femoral and brachial embolectomy, lower limb fasciotomy are also described. In addition, above- and below-knee amputations and vascular access are included.

Abdominal aortic aneurysm stent grafts have been reported to fracture at a rate as high as 8% [1]. Iliac artery deformation induced by cardiac pulsation or musculoskeletal motions has been hypothesized to cause these fractures, but little in vivo data has been available heretofore to test this hypothesis. We have utilized magnetic resonance angiography and image-processing methods to quantify in vivo deformation of the human iliac arteries due to maximal hip flexion.

Introduction. Aortoiliac occlusive disease and abdominal aortic aneurysm in patients with renal insufficiency on hemodialysis can significantly influence the success of renal transplantation. In the recent past, advanced atherosclerosis was considered as contraindication for renal transplantation. Complicated creation of vascular anastomoses and progression of occlusive or aneurysmal disease were the main reasons. Case report. We presented a 52-year-old man with a 5-year history of end-stage renal disease on haemodialysis. The patient was previously excluded from renal transplantation program because of severe aortoiliac atherosclerosis and abdominal aortic aneurysm. Resection of abdominal aortic aneurysm with occlusion of the iliac arteries and reconstruction with aortobifemoral synthetic grafts was performed and followed by cadaveric renal transplantation. Conclusion. Advanced atherosclerotic disease in aortoiliac segment requires elective vascular surgical reconstruction, as part of preparation for renal transplantation in patients with end-stage renal disease.
