Abstract :Objective: The aim of this study is to analyze the long-term outcomes of above-knee femoro-popliteal bypass procedures with Omniflow II biosynthetic grafts. Primary patency and graft related complications were the end points of the study. Methods: Between January 2012 and January 2021, a total of 50 patients insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(42 males, 8 females); were revascularized using an in-situ Omniflow II graft. Demographic, clinical, operative and postoperative characteristics of the patients were analyzed retrospectively. Results: Mean age was 63.8±10.1 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(range 40-82); years. Fifty above-knee femoropopliteal bypass procedures were performed. Four patients insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(8%); were operated on due to a previous vascular graft infection where 8 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(16%); were operated on due to a previous occlusion. Primary patency rate was 88%. Early graft thrombosis occurred in 2 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(4%); patients where late graft stenosis unrelated to the anastomotic sites was encountered in 1 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(2%); patient. An endarterectomy on either the proximal or distal site of the anastomosis were performed in 12 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(24%); patients. Mean follow-up was 32.9±20.8 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(range 12-90); months. Three insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(6%); patients died due to a COVID-19 infection. No graft infection nor mortality related to arterial bypass procedures was encountered. Conclusion: The Omniflow II biosynthetic graft provides superior results in treatment of above-knee femoro-popliteal bypass procedures with high patency rates and low incidence of graft infection and aneurysm formation
