The use of the Fogarty catheter in 1998

Cardiovascular Surgery, 1999
Catheter-mediated thromboembolectomy has evolved over the last three decades along with changes in vascular disease patterns. As in situ arterial thrombosis has become more common both in natural arteries and prosthetic grafts, changes in mechanical thromboembolectomy have been necessary to optimize treatment strategies.

Flexor Sheath Dilatation with a Fogarty Catheter

Journal of Hand Surgery, 2002
The use of a Fogarty catheter to dilate a constricted flexor sheath is described. This relatively atraumatic method of dilating a constricted flexor sheath, may some times allow a one-stage rather than a two-stage tendon graft procedure.

Technique of Aortic Balloon Catheter Deployment with the Use of a Fogarty Catheter

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1972
Abstract The routine use of Fogarty catheters during removal of the intraaortic balloon catheter resulted in extraction of thrombotic material from the femoral artery in 4 out of 9 patients. The techniques of deployment, maintenance, and removal of the intraaortic device are described.

Complications of the Use of the Fogarty Balloon Catheter

Archives of Surgery, 1972
Over a seven-year period, during which time approximately 500 balloon-tipped catheters have been used in surgical procedures, six complications have been recognized. These were disruption of the posterior tibial artery, perforation of the popliteal artery, breaking off of the catheter tip in the profunda femoris artery, disruption of an intrahepatic ...

Arteriovenous Fistula After Fogarty Catheter Thrombectomy

Archives of Surgery, 1972
We have seen cases of arteriovenous fistula occurring in the lower extremity following Fogarty catheter thrombectomy. Neither patient required immediate operation for limb salvage, nor has one been necessary subsequently. The first patient was observed for over two years and the second patient for four months.

Use of Fogarty catheter for removal of inspissated meconium

The American Journal of Surgery, 1972
Abstract A new use for the Fogarty catheter is presented. Removal of inspissated meconium from the distal ileum was carried out by passage of the Fogarty catheter through an enterotomy in a newborn infant. This was accomplished successfully and with great ease. This method is also useful in demonstrating the complete patency of the distal bowel.

Heparin Administration After Fogarty Catheter Thromboembolectomy

Archives of Surgery, 1987
To the Editor .—In "Arterial Thromboembolism: A 20-Year Perspective," Tawes et al 1 strongly advocated the routine use of heparin in the postoperative management of all patients undergoing embolectomy for acute thromboembolic occlusion of the lower extremity.

Complications secondary to thrombectomy with the fogarty baloon catheter

Cardiovascular and Interventional Radiology, 1981
Thrombectomy performed with the Fogarty balloon catheter may, in a small percentage of cases, give rise to complications. In four cases reviewed, this procedure was associated with aneurysms or arteriovenous fistulae. Careful catheter manipulation and a judicious use of fluoroscopy or angiography during the procedure can reduce the number of such ...
