Abstract

Semiclosed endarterectomy of the SFA belongs in the armamentarium of the vascular surgeon. New technology offers the possibility of performing this less invasive operation so that only a single incision is needed to obtain access to the artery and perform remote disobliteration. Strong indications show that the anticipated restenosis of long, segmental, closed endarterectomies can be reduced remarkably by expanded PTFE endolining.
