[Therapeutical options in partial infected aorto- bifemoral prosthetic grafts].

Purpose: To asses the use of synthetic or autologous conduits for the reconstruction of iliofemural sector in the cases of partial, limited infections of aortobifemural prosthetic grafts.

Method: We present two cases, both of them with infection recognized at the groin; the first one by a vascular fistula bleeding intermittently, the second by a draining groin sinus with fever and leukocytosis.

Results: The PTFE conduit was the material utilized at the first case and the superficial femoral vein in the second case.
