From October 1985 to December 1988, 31 iliofemoral eversion endarterectomies were performed in 29 patients with arteriosclerosis. The surgical procedure was carried out for trophic lesions in 74% of the patients and for ischemic rest pain in the remaining 26%. In 11 operations the endarterectomy was associated with profundoplasty, and in eight with saphenous vein femoropopliteal bypass. There were six immediate failures, four of them submitted to successful reoperations, and two to above knee amputations. In cases with good immediate patency no complications occurred during the follow-up periods which ranged from one to 34 months. With one post-operative death the mortality rate was 3.2%. Two patients displayed later severe ischemic manifestations in the opposite limbs and were both submitted to the same type of operation with good result. It may be concluded that iliofemoral eversion endarterectomy is an appropriate alternative procedure to the aortoiliofemoral reconstruction surgery in patients with severe ischemia of the lower limbs.
