[Selection of surgical approaches in the treatment of aortoiliac arterial occlusive disease].

31 patients with aortoiliac occlusive disease with or without infrainguinal occlusion was treated with thromboendarterectomies, aortoiliac or aortofemoral arterial bypasses, extra-anatomic bypasses and sequential arterial bypasses in the past 5 years. The results were satisfactory. The surgical mortality was 3.2%, the primary 5-year patent rate was 84.2%, and the secondary 5-year patent rate was 96.5%. We emphasize the value of ABI to indicate arterial reconstruction.
