    Purpose We aimed to examine the effects of sildenafil and n-acetylcystein on ischemia/reperfusion injury in femoral artery endothelium and gastrocnemius muscle. Basic methods 32 rats of Sprague-Dawley breed were randomly divided into four groups (n=8). Median laparotomy was performed, then a 120-minute ischemia was created by microvascular clamping of infrarenal aorta, followed by the release of clamping. In sildenafil group, 1mg/kg of sildenafil infusion and in the n-acetylcystein group, 100mg/kg of n-acetylcystein infusion was administered after release of clamps. Blood samples and tissue samples of femoral artery and gastrocnemius muscle were extracted for a histopathological evaluation. Principal findings Serum levels of malondialdehyde in ischemia/reperfusion group (6.160.79) were higher compared to the control group (4.69 +/- 0.33), whereas a significant decrease was detected in sildenafil (5.17 +/- 0.50) and n-acetylcystein (4.96 +/- 0.49) groups. Femoral artery tissue sections of the control group, mean tumor necrosis factor alpha and hypoxy-induced factor-1 alpha immunoreactivity were found to be negative. In the ischemia/reperfusion group, mean tumor necrosis factor immunoreactivity was intense and mean hypoxy-induced factor-1 alpha immunoreactivity was 51-75%. In the ischemia/reperfusion+Sildenafil and ischemia/reperfusion+NAS groups, mean tumor necrosis factor immunoreactivity was slight and mean hypoxy-induced factor-1 alpha immunoreactivity was 26-50%. Conclusions In conclusion, sildenafil and n-acetylcystein may reduce femoral artery endothelium and gastrocnemius muscle injury following lower extremity ischemia/reperfusion.

    A rare complication after axillofemoral bypass operation: disruption of the proximal anastomosis: single case after 12 years' experience in extra-anatomic bypass surgery
    (Sage Publications Ltd, 2014) Chousein, Serchat; Yuksel, Volkan; Geldi, Onur; Canbaz, Suat
    Axillofemoral bypass operation is an alternative approach for patients at high risk for aortofemoral reconstruction and for patients with comorbid factors. Proximal anastomotic disruption, upper extremity thromboembolism, graft infection and seroma formation are known postoperative complications after axillofemoral bypass. Proximal anastomotic disruption is a severe complication in the early postoperative period and is usually secondary to technical errors in anastomosis, mechanical distress and infections. We performed a left axillofemoral bypass and left femoropopliteal bypass operation under general anesthesia by using an 8 mm full ringed polytetrafluoroethylene graft. On the seventh postoperative day, patient complained a sudden pain and swelling on left subclavian incision after a hyperabduction of the left arm. Patient was taken into operation theatre just after this complaint for suspicion of disruption of the proximal anastomosis. We report a case with proximal anastomotic disruption after axillofemoral bypass operation in accordance with literature data.
