Abstract

Objective To study the factors influencing outcome of acute arterial embolism in extremity.Method From Aug 1997 to Nov 2001, we have accomplished treatment in 41 cases of acute arterial embolism in extremity with Fogarty catheter.Result Among 41 cases,26 cases were succeeded in leg salvage,8 cases were subject to amputation and 7 cases were dead finally.Conclusions Durationand degree of ischemia in extremity,embolectomy completeness in the case of introoperation,reperfusive injury and myonephropathic-metabolic syndrome,Primary diseases and general conditions are main influencing factors in treatment of acute arterial embolism.
