Abstract:
Objective A new mechanical thrombectomy instrument with preliminary clinical application were introduced. Methods Four cases (3 men and one woman; 61-71 years of age, mean age 66) consisting six legs with subacute or chronic occlusion of the femoropopliteal arteries having a course of 75 days to 10 months, were included in this study. All patients were treated with Straub Rotarex System (Straub Rotarex, patent pending. Straub medical, Wangs, Switzerland). Among them 2 cases were caused by atherosclerosis, 1 by emboli and 1 by diabetes mellitus. The lengths of the occluded segments were 3.8-56 cm. Results The thrombi were removed, and the arteries were undergone recanalization. The blood loss was low, amounting to 5-180 ml. Distal emboli formation in 3 legs were treated successfully by thrombsuction or thrombolysis. Conclusion Straub Rotarex System is a new safe and effective mechanical thrombectomy instrument.
