Abstract
In patients with arterial occlusive disease of the iliofemoral segment, EE either alone or in association with endovascular stenting or open bypass appears to be a safe and effective technique. It may obviate the need for patch closure. In our initial case series, there were no amputations, deaths, or surgical site infections. Symptoms improved in 9 of 11 patients with only 2 requiring reintervention due to recurrent symptoms during the follow-up period.
