Early and Mid-Term Outcomes after Vascular Reconstruction for Patients with Lower-Extremity Soft-Tissue Malignant Tumors
Year: 2018
Type: article
Abstract: : Early and mid-term bypass patency rates, the high percentage of limb salvage, and the oncologic outcome underline the efficacy of en bloc resection of soft-tissue tumors involving major vessels of the lower limbs. The anticipated need for vascular resection and reconstruction should not be a contraindication to sarcoma and carcinoma resections. However, efforts to achieve better control over systemic spread are required for long-term survival.
