Abstract：
:Our experience from 1960 to 1976 with total infrarenal aortic thrombosis (Leriche syndrome) was reviewed. Sixteen heavy smokers (14 men and 2 women) with an average age of fifty-four years underwent thrombectomy with aortoiliac (12 patients) or aortofemoral (4) Dacron bypasses. The last ten patients were hydrated for 12 hours preoperatively with 3,000 ml of Ringer's solution containing supplemental potassium. Mannitol (25 g), furosemide (20 mg), and heparin (120 u/kg) were given intraoperatively. Thrombectomy was accomplished by transection of the aorta, with proximal manual control of the aorta after the renal arteries were occluded. With this technic there were no deaths or renal complications, whereas previously, three of the six patients developed renal complications and one died. Ninety-two per cent of the grafts have remained open. We recommend that the direct transabdominal approach be continued rather than the extraanatomic bypass (axillobilateral-femoral), since further propagation of the aortic thrombosis may then lead to infarction of the kidneys or other viscera.
