57 Autogenous Composite Vein Bypass forRedo Infrainguinal Arterial Reconstruction
construct a conduit of sufcient length has been performed for years and continues to confer an advantage over the non-autogenous counterparts. Studies have demonstrated that spliced arm vein grafts provide durable lower extremity revascular­ization outcomes with favorable patency and limb preservation rates over prosthetic grafts [46]. Aggressive endovascular interventions for patients without adequate length autogenous con­duits have also become more popular and appear to offer benet without adversely affecting future outcomes, in particular in those patients that underwent spliced vein bypasses strategy rst [7].
The case presented is an important reminder that the goal of aggressive redo lower extremity arterial reconstruction is to de-escalate the patient’s symptom complex by eliminating rest pain and the consequent morbidity of tissue loss and major limb amputation. It is imperative that we remain aggressive in this endeavor and con­tinue to use autogenous composite conduits whenever possible, and as many spliced seg­ments as necessary, because truly, arms (veins) save legs!

Repeat Femoral Posterior Tibial Bypass Using Spliced Cephalic Vein

58
History andPhysical Examination
A 56-year-old male presented to the outpatient clinic with complaints of severe pain in the right foot in August 2019. Medical comorbidities included hypertension, nicotine abuse (60 pack years), and alcohol abuse. Past surgical history included right distal supercial femoral to mid posterior tibial bypass with ipsilateral non­reversed greater saphenous vein in March 2017. Patient was lost to follow-up but had two percuta­neous interventions in the interim by another sur­geon. Patient had easily palpable right femoral pulse, but no pulses were palpable below that level. Noninvasive arterial Doppler study revealed an ankle brachial index of 0.26 on the right and
1.0 on the left. Arteriography showed occlusion of the right femoral to posterior tibial bypass; right supercial femoral artery at its junction with a popliteal artery was patent. There was occlusion of the right popliteal artery, and the runoff was with posterior tibial artery, and the site of previ­ously placed distal anastomosis to the midseg­ment posterior tibial artery can be seen by slight angulation of the posterior tibial artery (Fig.58.1).

Procedure

Following venous mapping of the left upper extremity, patient underwent distal right super­cial femoral artery to distal posterior tibial artery
bypass with cephalic vein. There were two cephalic veins from below the elbow to the mid­dle upper arm and which joined to form a larger cephalic vein. Both branches were preserved; vein was harvested from the shoulder to just below the elbow (Fig.58.2). These veins were then anastomosed in an end-to-end fashion to obtain an adequate length for the bypass. The veins were used in a non-reversed fashion, and after proximal anastomosis to the distal super­cial femoral artery just above the abductor, mag­nus was performed. The valve leaets were incised by retrograde valvulotome; distal poste­rior tibial artery was exposed 3–4cm inferior to the previously placed anastomosis. Dissection was difcult because of scar tissue formation. Posterior tibial artery was small in caliber; distal anastomosis was performed with a continuous 7-0 cardiovascular polypropylene suture as a parachute stitch at the start of the anastomosis (Fig.58.2). Patient had excellent posterior tibial Doppler signal at the ankle. Twelve hours after the arterial bypass the graft thrombosed. Patient was re-explored; thrombus was removed. The probable cause of thrombus was retained anterior valve reex just above the distal anastomosis. The anastomosis was opened at its hood; a number two Fogarty catheter was passed distally. After revision of this anastomosis, patient had a palpable posterior tibial pulse. Patient had satis­factory healing of the incisions but developed hematoma/seroma in the lower thigh 2 weeks

Discussion

An arm vein was rst reported as a vascular con­duit by Kakkar in 1969 [1]. Since that time, there have been a number of large case series reported by investigators about the use of arm vein for lower extremity arterial bypass as ipsilateral greater saphenous vein is either inadequate or unavailable [24]. Varcoe et al. reported 37 infrainguinal arterial reconstructions using arm

veins with almost half were formed for redo operations. They reported 5-year patency of 37±9% and secondary patency of 76±8% and a limb salvage of 91±5% [2]. Faries etal. reported 153 lower extremity revascularizations between 1990 and 1998 [4]. The grafts were composed of spliced arm vein segments with venovenostomy in 122 and of composite prosthetic-autogenous conduit in 31. They used intraoperative angios­copy for valve lysis and identication of luminal abnormalities in 47.7% of cases. Reported 5-year primary patency in their series was 53.8±8.7% with secondary patency of 57.7±8% when arm veins were used. They concluded that arm veins are conduit of choice when an adequate greater saphenous vein is not available [4].

Management ofaPatient withComplicated Adventitial Cystic Disease ofthePopliteal Artery
59

Physical Examination

A 77-year-old male was seen in the outpatient clinic with symptoms of left calf claudication on walking 50 yards in October 2011. Medical comorbidities included degenerative arthritis and hyperlipidemia. All the pulses were normal in the right lower extremity. Examination of the arterial pulses in the left lower extremity revealed easily palpable left femoral pulse, but no pulses were palpable below that level. Noninvasive Doppler arterial study showed an ankle brachial index of
1.0 on the right and 0.71 on the left. CTA of lower
extremities showed thrombosis of popliteal artery with adjoining adventitial cyst (Fig.59.1). Patient underwent arteriography which showed stenosis of the popliteal artery in its proximal portion and complete occlusion in its midsegment just above the knee suggestive of adventitial cystic disease (Fig.59.2). The length of the occlusion was about 3 centimeters long. Patient was scheduled for revascularization of the left popliteal artery with autogenous vein.

Procedure

Patient was placed in supine position, and saphe­nous vein (10 cm long) was harvested from the groin and upper thigh, and the wound was closed in layers. The patient was then placed supine, and popliteal artery was exposed through the posterior approach. The proximal popliteal artery and the distal popliteal artery were looped with vessel loop after the fascia in the midline was divided. There was inammatory reaction around the artery. 7500units of heparin were given by the anesthesia. The adventitial cyst was carefully dissected from the artery as it was rmly adherent to surrounding structures. Proximal vascular clamp was applied to the popliteal artery and distally to the popliteal artery above its bifurcation. The artery was com­pletely excised, cyst was opened, and there was gelatinous uid in the cyst along with a thrombus in the popliteal artery (Fig.59.3). The saphenous vein was anastomosed to the popliteal artery in its proxi­mal portion in a non- reversed fashion with continu­ous 5-0 cardiovascular polypropylene. Retrograde valvulotome was introduced and anterior and pos­terior valve leaets were incised, and a distal anas­tomosis to the popliteal artery was done in an end- to- end fashion. This anastomosis was spatu­lated, and 7-0 cardiovascular running polypropyl-

ene suture was used. It is to be noted that the diameter of its vein at its distal end was 3 mm. Patient was discharged on the fth postoperative day. Patient presented with symptoms of recurrent claudication in June 2012 and underwent arteriog­raphy which showed occlusion of the bypass graft. Patient underwent thrombolysis with TPA and with 24-hour infusion, establishing the patency of the venous bypass. Since the vein was small in cali­ber, patient underwent balloon angioplasty and placement of a covered stent GORE®VIABAHN® Endoprosthesis (W.L.Gore, Newark, DE) 6mm in diameter and 5cm long which was post-dilated with a 6×4cm balloon (Fig.59.4). His postopera­tive course was uneventful, and he had a palpable dorsalis pedis pulse. Noninvasive Doppler arterial study showed normal dorsalis pedis pulse. Patient

medial layers. Popliteal artery adventitial cystic disease typically presents in males (5:1) in their early to mid-30s who complain of sudden onset of short-distance claudication. The recovery time is typically prolonged (= 20 mins) compared to patients who have peripheral artery disease asso­ciated with symptoms of intermittent claudica­tion. Conventional arteriography is the most common imaging test performed; however, MRI is an alternative noninvasive imaging modality. The pathognomonic sign of adventitial cystic dis­ease is scimitar sign [46]. However in one third of cases, there is complete popliteal artery occlu­sion. Management of popliteal adventitial cyst includes resection of the cystic segment with autogenous graft. Resection with autogenous

has been followed for the past 7 years without any recurrence of symptoms. Patient has been maintained on antiplatelet drugs (low-dose aspi­rin and clopidogrel).

Discussion

Popliteal artery adventitious cystic disease is a non-atheromatous popliteal artery condition which is rare but can cause symptoms ranging from intermittent claudication to critical limb ischemia. The disease is uncommon with more recent articles citing approximately 600 cases. Adventitious cystic disease was rst reported in 1947 involving the iliac artery; however, more than 85% of the cases involve popliteal artery [1,
2]. Other arteries less commonly involved are the
external iliac and femoral, brachial, axillary, and radial arteries. It is well established that this pathology occurs in arteries lying adjacent to joint space. Therefore, no unifying consensus on the etiology of this disease process has been reached. Many controversial hypotheses include repetitive trauma theory, ganglion theory, systemic disorder theory, and the developmental theory [3]. Adventitial cysts are lled with gelatinous mucoid material between arterial adventitia and the
graft bypass has a 1% risk of recurrence [1]. Other treatment modalities include image guided cyst aspiration and transluminal angioplasty [4]. Cyst aspiration is associated with high incidence of recurrence of the lesion. Transluminal angioplasty should be avoided as the cyst is located between the media and the adventitia. The patient reported in this chapter had thrombosis of the vein graft most likely secondary to inadequate size of the greater saphenous vein. Covered stent graft (GORE®VIABAHN® Endoprosthesis) has remained patent for the past 7 years.

Adventitial cystic disease (ACD) of the popliteal artery, the target of over 80% of all cases, was not described until the 1950s by Ejrup [7]. ACD is a form of non-atheromatous arterial disease which tends to afict nonsmoking patients out of the age and risk factor range of those with peripheral arte­rial disease. As such, this rare diagnosis (<0.1% of claudicants) is often missed until referral to the appropriate specialist [8]. No consensus on the pathophysiology is available, and multiple gene­sis theories have been proposed and debated. Diagnosis can be conrmed with a combination of duplex, CTA, MRA, and/or DSA depending on ease and availability to the clinician. While it is

important to emphasize the pathognomonic pres­ence of eccentric (“scimitar” sign) or concentric (“hourglass” sign) compression of the arterial lumen on imaging, ACD is often diagnosed with­out visualization of these signs secondary to the availability of noninvasive duplex imaging.
The author in this chapter describes a longitu­dinal clinical experience with a 77-year-old male recently diagnosed with ACD.This presentation is atypical as subjects tend to present at a younger age. A revascularization was offered given severe lifestyle-limiting claudication in this nonsmoker, and cyst resection and arterial interposition were performed, perhaps with a marginal vein. Reintervention was required in follow-up, but secondary patency was maintained via thrombol­ysis and covered stenting after bypass thrombosis due to conduit quality.
Consensus treatment recommendations are limited by the scarcity of this pathology in the real world. Because cyst formation occurs between the tunica media and adventitia, angioplasty ± stenting is not durable secondary to aggressive elastic recoil, often within the rst postoperative day. Similarly, cyst evacuation by aspiration has been plagued by poor ability to achieve technical success and disease recurrence. Therefore, com­plete resection and arterial replacement have become the treatment of choice [9]. Recently, we published a contemporary ACD series within the auspices of the VLFDC compiling 47 patients between 14 institutions [5]. As expected, claudi­cation (93%) was the most common presenting symptom, and the popliteal artery was the artery
most often affected (87%). Ultimately, 41 patients underwent surgical intervention consisting of a combination of techniques. Reintervention rate was 18% over a mean follow-up of 20 months with complete resection and interposition bypass most predictive of freedom from reintervention (p= 0.04). However unlike the durability of the open revascularization, endovascular therapy is yet to demonstrate durability and efcacy.
