Abstract
Vascular reconstruction remains the treatment of choice for patients with severe PAOD. However, once thrombosis of the bypass has occurred, secondary procedures to restore the patency are complex and associated with 3–5 year patency rates of less than 50%. The ideal treatment in nonreconstructible peripheral arterial occlusive disease should allow the patient to retain his limb with no or minimal pain and to maintain a satisfactory level of function.
