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.

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 ...

Imaging of Limb Salvage Surgery
American Journal of Roentgenology, 2012Limb salvage surgery comprises surgical techniques designed to resect musculoskeletal extremity tumors and subsequently reconstruct a limb with an acceptable oncologic, functional, and cosmetic result. Today, 70-90% of malignant extremity tumors are being treated with limb salvage surgery.The purpose of this article is to describe the operative ...

Infrapopliteal angioplasty for limb salvage
European Journal of Vascular Surgery, 1993Fourteen infrapopliteal angioplasties were performed in 13 patients with critical limb ischaemia. Clinical indications were rest pain, ulceration, gangrene or a critically ischaemic limb from a graft occlusion secondary to an infrapopliteal lesion. The average ankle-brachial ratio was 0.22 in non-diabetics. Technical success was achieved in all lesions

Primary bone tumors in children are rare conditions, the upper limb being more rarely affected than the lower limb. The practicing general orthopedic surgeon may not see more than a single case of primary bone tumor per year. This rarity makes the recognition— particularly of malignant bone tumors—extremely difficult.

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2010
The primary goal of limb salvage is to restore or maintain function. To achieve this goal, proper patient selection, timely reconstruction, and choosing the procedure best suited for the patient are paramount. The decision to salvage a limb should be individualized for each patient, taking into consideration not only the extremity wound but also the ...
