Prospective Evaluation of Femoral Tripod Eversion Technique
Sponsor: Hôpital NOVO
Summary
Endarteriectomy is considered as the first line treatment of femoral bifurcation atheromatous lesions. Eversion technique, similar to that used for carotid bifurcation, is safe and possible for the majority of the femoral tripod lesions. The major advantage of the eversion technique is the absence of prosthetic material to be performed. However, its use has been scarcely evaluated in the literature to date. This work aims at evaluating the long term safety and the efficacy of eversion femoral technique. Surgical technique was thoroughly described and participants were followed up for two years by serial clinical and doppler US examination.

Femoral eversion
The purpose of this database is to compile the data of patients followed at the René Dubos Hospital Center with symptomatic lower extremity arterial disease (AOMI) (Rutherford 2 to 5) who were operated on by the femoral tripod eversion technique. The database will include data on the operation, possible complications, clinical course of patients and medical and surgical follow-up.
