Case study: chronic femoropopliteal prosthetic graft infection with exposed graft.

abstract：:Arteriovenous (AV) loop grafts are a type of vascular conduit that can be used to support free tissue transfer. Wounds of various etiologies may require free tissue transfer, and the AV loop graft is a useful adjunct when adjacent blood supply is inadequate. Here we present 2 cases and review the technique and publish...
