Özet
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.
