Several technics for restoration of primary circulation by surgical means to a limb which has lost its mainline arterial supply have been developed. Technics available at present are arteriectomy with insertion of a graft,1bypass without arteriectomy,2endarteriectomy,3and various modifications of these procedures. Since there are limitations to the applicability and ultimate efficiency of these surgical methods,4-7efforts to promote the development of collateral circulation have continued. Surgical methods designed to enhance collateral circulation...Bibliography1. ElkinCooper PCFW: Surgical treatment of insidious thrombosis: 10 cases. Amer. Surg. 130: 417, 1949. Google Scholar2.
