Abstract：
:This study has summarized our results with popliteal-tibial in situ saphenous vein bypass in 26 patients, 25 of whom were diabetic, over a 2 year period. Both above- and below-knee popliteal inflow sites were used for bypass of limb-threatening ischemia. Distal calf or pedal outflow sites were required in all but two patients who had sequential bypass performed to tibial sites. Postoperative ankle-brackial indices were calculated. Eleven patients had transcutaneous mapping surrounding the pedal skin envelope injuries. The mean lowest and highest transcutaneous oxygen values have been reported as a guide to successful healing.
