Annals of Vascular Surgery, 1989
Sixty-eight lower extremity bypass procedures for severe lower limb ischemia were undertaken on 53 patients of 75 years of age and over. The operative mortality was 4.4%. At two years cumulative limb salvage, patient survival, graft patency and survival with an intact limb were 77%, 72%, 44%, and 56%, respectively.

Limb salvage for osteosarcoma.
The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 1988Five issues need to be addressed when considering limb salvage instead of amputation for osteosarcoma of the extremities. Is there any decrease in survival with limb salvage when compared to amputation? What are the differences in the immediate morbidity between the two surgical procedures?

Pedal reconstructions for limb salvage
European Journal of Vascular Surgery, 1991If only one pedal artery is patent the vascular surgeon has to decide between primary amputation and a bypass. Between 1980 and 1990, 460 femoro-distal bypasses were performed in our clinic and 8% (39 cases) of these received a pedal reconstruction. At discharge from the hospital 85% of these grafts were patent.

Learning Objectives: After studying this article, the participant should be able to: 1. Explain the basic concept of functional limb salvage. 2. Understand the complexity of salvaging the limb when consulting the patient, especially regarding how to obtain the best possible functional outcome, whether it be from limb salvage or

Extended profundoplasty for limb salvage
Pain, 1979Extended profundoplasty was performed in 50 limbs of 39 patients for relief of rest pain or gangrene. This operation was effective in 95% of the limbs operated on because of rest pain, and in 54.5% of the limbs operated on because of gangrene. In 32 limbs the popliteal artery was patent.

Limb Amputation Versus Limb Salvage
2017Several studies have compared outcomes after limb salvage and amputation in an attempt to define objective criteria to guide the decision of whether and when to amputate or reconstruct a severely injured leg. Most of this research is based on experience at civilian level I trauma centers.

Complications after limb salvage surgery
Current Problems in Diagnostic Radiology, 2004Orthopedic oncology patients gain a chance at an active, disease-free life through the use of limb salvage surgery. This goal is reached with meticulous technique, detailed operative planning, and the use of endoprosthetic replacements and/or bone grafting.

Acta Chirurgica Belgica, 2005
Pedal bypass grafting is often the only method of limb salvage in patients with chronic critical lower limb ischemia due to atherosclerotic obliteration of the crural arteries, including patients with diabetic foot gangrene. It involves arterial reconstruction with distal anastomosis to one of the pedal arteries.Between January 2000 and June 2004, 54 ...

Osteochondral Allografts for Limb Salvage
Orthopaedic Nursing, 1989Use of osteochondral allografts has increased over the past 10 years in combination with improved procedures for bone procurement and storage, the development of protocols for tumor staging and diagnosis, successful adjuvant therapies that prolong survival, and greater emphasis on improved quality of life for persons with aggressive neoplasms of bone ...
