Abstract

71 years old man was operated on due to abdominal aortic aneurysm associated with complete occlusion of left common iliac artery. The coexisting chronic deep vein thrombosis of the left femoral and iliac vein was not diagnosed preoperatively. Resection of aneurysm and Y-graft interposition was performed. Recurrent edema and pain occured to the left lower extremity immediately postoperatively, which aggrevated with the lapse of time, resulting in fatal extensive venous thrombosis. This report regards the surgical treatment and complication of the aortoiliac occlusive disease associated with chronic deep vein thrombosis.

71세 남자 환자로 좌측 총장골 동맥의 완전 폐쇄를 동반한 복부 대동맥류로 수술하였다. 술 전, 좌측 대퇴 및 장골 정맥에 동반된 만성 심부정맥 혈전증은 진단하지 못 하였다. 동맥류 절제술 및 우측은 외측 장골동맥에, 좌측은 대퇴동맥에 문합한 Y-graft 치환술과 대퇴동맥간 우회술을 시행하였으나, 술 후 반복적인 부종과 통증이 발생하였고 점차 악화되어 결국 광범위한 정맥 혈전증으로 사망하였다. 본례는 만성 심부정맥 혈전증을 동반한 폐쇄성 대동맥 장골 동맥 질환에 있어 수술적 치료 및 합병증에 관한 보고이다.
