The techniques for surgical revascularizations in aortoiliac arteriopa
thy have evolved remarkably in recent years. The authors have examined
their personal experience of 47 selected endarterectomies performed b
etween 1973 and 1992. The favorable results of this type of revascular
ization are highlighted, together with the significant amount of mediu
m- and long-term redo procedures and the ever-narrowing field of appli
cation of such a technique.
