Percutaneous aspiration thromboembolectomy (PAT) for management of a spontaneous arterial embolus, or following a complication of balloon angioplasty, was initially described in 1984. Instrument developments using a new clot aspiration system have facilitated this procedure. We report a case where PAT was successful in retrieving a spontaneous arterial embolus, and describe this new technique. We feel that PAT broadens the armamentarium of the vascular surgeon in the management of emboli to the distal circulation, where the results for operative embolectomy are frequently less than ideal.
经皮抽吸血栓切除术（PAT）用于治疗自发性动脉栓子或球囊血管成形术并发症，最初于1984年被描述。使用新型血栓抽吸系统的器械发展推动了这一手术。我们报告了一例PAT成功取出自发性动脉栓子的病例，并描述了这项新技术。我们认为PAT拓宽了血管外科医生在处理远端循环栓子方面的手段，而手术取栓术在远端循环的效果往往不尽人意。
