Femoropopliteal Bypass
- Auckland District Health Board (ADHB) >
- Auckland DHB Cardiothoracic and Vascular Intensive Care and High Dependency Unit
This operation is to bypass diseased blood vessels above or below the knee. To bypass the blocked vessel, blood is redirected through either a healthy blood vessel that has been transplanted or a man-made graft material that is sewn to the diseased artery.
Whenever possible the surgeon will choose an existing piece of vein taken from the same leg.
