Femoro-Femoral and Axillo-Femoral Bypass

If an angioplasty is not feasible & a laparotomy is too hazardous, a femoro-femoral bypass alone may be suitable for unilateral iliac disease. In these circumstances, bilateral aorto-iliac disease can be managed with an axillo-femoral to provide in-flow together with a femoro-femoral cross-over graft.
