Abstract

The graft infection within the abdomen is a notorious condition, which usually develops serious complications of anastomotic rupture or distal embolism that ended in death. There has been many controversies in the treatment of an aortobiiliac graft infection and varying results have been reported. The authors treated a case of aortobiiliac graft infection after abdominal aortic aneurysm surgery. The operation was performed with re-aortobiiliac bypass using bilateral superficial femoral veins. The result was successful.

복부 인조혈관 감염증은 매우 심각한 상태로서 문합부 파열로 심한 출혈이나 급성 말초 색전증으로 하지 허혈을 유발하여 사망률이 높고 치료하기 어려운 질환으로 치료에 대한 논란이 많은 질환이다. 저자는 복부대동맥류 수술 후 약 1년 후에 발생한 인조혈관 감염증례를 양 허벅지 심부정맥인 표제성 대퇴정맥을 사용하여 재치환하여 좋은 결과를 얻었기에 문헌과 함께 보고한다.
