INTRODUCTION: Infra-inguinal vascular reconstruction with active groin infection is a concerning issue. Using resistant grafts to infection is the most adopted approach. However, in absence of these materials in acute situations, the trans-obturator approach allows for limb revascularisation avoiding the infected site. We evaluated the effectiveness of this approach in patients who needed lower limb revascularisation with an ipsilateral groin infection.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective study was conducted over a four-year period.
RESULTS: Over this period, 13 patients underwent trans-obturator reconstructions (13 external iliac-popliteal above-knee and one aortobipopliteal above-knee bypass). Seven patients had been previously revascularised and were admitted for graft infection (six infra-inguinal bypasses, one axillo-bifemoral bypass). Four presented with acute limb ischaemia, three with groin haematoma and one with a groin abscess. The remaining cases consisted of drug-addicted patients with injury of femoral vessels due to self-injection of drugs. The patients underwent reconstructions with autologous grafts which complicated early with groin haematoma. After transobturator revascularisation, the groin underwent debridement with applying vacuum-assisted wound closure device.
CONCLUSION: The transobturator approach could be considered as a chance for lower limb revascularisation in case of ipsilateral groin infection. Moreover, avoiding the infected site allowed us to focus separately and safely on the treatment of the inguinal wound.
