SURGICAL SITE INFECTION IN PATIENTS WITH THE DESTRUCTION OF THE VASCULAR IMPLANT

Treatment of patients with occlusive-stenotic lesions of the lower limb arteries in the stage of critical limb ischemia and postoperative infectious complications is a pressing issue of modern vascular surgery. If a patient has a vascular prosthesis, the development of a surgical site infection can lead to arrosive bleeding with fatal outcome. The aim of this report is to demonstrate the case of successful surgical treatment of a patient with an infected synthetic vascular implant. The patient, born in 1962, addressed to a vascular surgeon 2 months after the surgical treatment of critical ischemia of the right lower limb with implantation of linear femoropopliteal prosthesis. The patient complained of the development of a wound with discharge and unpleasant odor. After inspection and examination of the patient, the infection of the vascular prosthesis with the formation of the fistula on the medial surface of the lower third of the right thigh was diagnosed. Surgical intervention was performed: removal of the infected femoropopliteal prosthesis with simultaneous autovenous femoropopliteal repeated bypass surgery by the great saphenous vein, performed subcutaneously, extra-anatomically within the healthy soft tissues, bypassing the infected area of the lower third of the thigh. Thus, one was able to save the limb of the patient, to prevent the development of arrosive bleeding and to improve the healing and recovery of the suppurative thigh lesion.
