A comparison of revascularization methods used in 35 patients who underwent 39 operations for chronic visceral ischemia caused by atherosclerosis is presented. All but two of these various methods have been abandoned either because of technical difficulties encountered during the procedure, or the high failure rate observed after operation. The two techniques which overcame these objections are: (1) antegrade aorto-celiac prosthetic grafts, and (2) transaortic endarterectomy using a thoracoretroperitoneal approach.
