Abstract
BACKGROUND Inferior vena cava (IVC) resection is essential for complete (R0) excision of some malignancies. However, the optimal material for IVC reconstruction remains unclear. Our objective is to demonstrate the efficacy, safety, and advantages of using Non-Fascial Autologous Peritoneum (NFAP) for IVC reconstruction. To conduct a literature review of surgical strategies for tumors involving the IVC. METHODS We reviewed all IVC reconstructions performed at our institution between 2015 and 2023. Preoperative, operative, postoperative, and follow-up data were collected and analyzed. RESULTS A total of 33 consecutive IVC reconstructions were identified: seven direct sutures, eight venous homografts (VH), and 18 NFAP. With regard to NFAP, eight tubular (mean length, 12.5 cm) and 10 patch (mean length, 7.9 cm) IVC reconstructions were performed. Resection was R0 in 89% of the cases. Two patients had Clavien-Dindo grade I complications, 2 grade II, 2 grade III and 2 grade V complications. The only graft-related complication was a case of early partial thrombosis, which was conservatively treated. At a mean follow-up of 25.9 months, graft patency was 100%. There were seven recurrences and six deaths. Mean overall survival (OS) was 23.4 months and mean disease-free survival (DFS) was 14.4 months. According to our results, no statistically significant differences were found between NFAP and VH. CONCLUSIONS NFAP is a safe and effective alternative for partial or complete IVC reconstruction and has many advantages over other techniques, including its lack of cost, wide and ready availability, extreme handiness, and versatility. Further comparative studies are required to determine the optimal technique for IVC reconstruction.

Ann Vasc Surg 2021; 81:324-332. [PMID: 34775019 DOI: 10.1016/j.avsg.2021.10.032] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/16/2021] [Revised: 10/03/2021] [Accepted: 10/04/2021] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Spiral saphenous vein grafts (SSVG) or paneled vein grafts (PVG) can be used when the diameter of the autologous great saphenous vein does not match the vessel that needs to be repaired. This study aimed to present early results of complex vascular reconstruction with SSVGs and PVGs in the lower extremities. METHODS From May 2019 through January 2021, 6 SSVGs and 3 PVGs were used for vascular reconstruction in 9 patients. Patient data were collected retrospectively, including age, gender, cause of vascular pathology, target vessels, concomitant injury, surgical method, additional surgical methods, and hemodynamic status. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the rate of freedom from reintervention. RESULTS Among these patients, 7 had trauma, 1 had graft infection, and 1 had vascular reconstruction after tumor excision. The mean duration of follow-up was 6 ± 6.6 months (range 1-19 months). The rate of freedom from reintervention for any reason was 77.8% at 1 year. Two patients underwent amputation after vascular reconstruction with patent vascular reconstructions. One of the 2 amputations was performed because of infection, and the other was due to ischemia >24 hr. The success rate of reconstruction was 100%, and the primary patency rate was 100%. The rate of limb salvage was 77.8%. There was no death, bleeding, embolism, skin ulcers, graft-related complication, or aneurysmal dilation during follow-up. CONCLUSIONS SSVG and PVG were associated with low infection rates and satisfactory short-term patency rates. Both 2 grafts may be good choices when there is a diameter mismatch in vascular reconstructions.

Abstract
There has been an increase in superior vena cava (SVC) syndrome secondary to the growing use of indwelling catheters and pacemaker wire insertions. These 2 factors can account up to 74% cases of benign SVC syndrome. Endovascular therapy is considered the first line of treatment. Surgery is an excellent option and is generally reserved for SVC syndrome not amenable to traditional endovascular procedures. We report a case of central venous reconstruction including an SVC reconstruction using the femoropopliteal vein as a panel graft in a patient with SVC syndrome due to pacemaker wires who failed multiple endovascular interventions.

Abstract
Background The use of autologous superficial femoral veins (SFV) as an arterial or venous substitute represents a valuable technique in modern vascular surgery with versatile indications. The SFV autografts exhibit excellent control of infection and durable long-term results in terms of graft patency in prosthetic or arterial infections. In cases of elective use of the SFV, duplex ultrasound evaluation of the deep leg vein system should be implemented to confirm the patency of the profunda femoris vein. Material and methods The SFV can be harvested distal to the adductor hiatus with a proximal portion of the popliteal vein but should not exceed the level of the knee joint. Formation of a stump of the proximal SFV must be avoided. Simultaneous harvesting of the ipsilateral greater saphenous vein should be avoided to reduce the risk of significant chronic edema. Results Early postoperative swelling of the donor leg can be expected but resolves spontaneously in most cases. Chronic mild edema of the leg with a possible indication for compression therapy may occur in up to 20 % of cases but severe complications are very rare if the anatomical borders for vein harvesting are respected. Temporary therapeutic anticoagulation after vein harvest is subject to individual decision making. Conclusion Duplex ultrasound is a reliable tool to assess the residual deep and superficial venous system in the long term. Excellent graft function and the tolerable adverse effects of vein harvest on the donor leg justify the use of the SFV in arterial and venous vascular surgery if indicated.

Abstract
After extended en-bloc resection of a retroperitoneal neoplasm, prosthetic grafts can efficiently replace the inferior vena cava. However, in cases of concomitant biliary or bowel surgery, there is a risk of infection, and autogenous materials typically used present with size match. We present a method of autogenous graft construction using the femoral vein for replacement of the inferior vena cava, with an alternate configuration for renal vein implantation.

The use of biological grafts for reconstruction of the inferior vena cava is a safe and valid alternative: results in 32 patients in a single institution. HPB (Oxford) 2013; 15:628-32. [PMID: 23458108 PMCID: PMC3731585 DOI: 10.1111/hpb.12029] [Citation(s) in RCA: 37] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/14/2012] [Accepted: 10/17/2012] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Resection and reconstruction of the inferior vena cava (IVC) is occasionally required in the surgical treatment of intra-abdominal tumours. IVC reconstruction can be performed with biological or synthetic graft material, with most centres preferring synthetic grafts. In spite of the potential advantages of biological grafts in terms of handling characteristics, and safety, very limited data are available about their use in patients requiring an IVC resection. METHODS Medical records of 32 patients who underwent an IVC resection and reconstruction from 1990 and 2011 with autogenous peritoneo-fascial (N = 22) and bovine pericardial (N = 10) grafts were reviewed. RESULTS A tangential resection with patch repair was performed in 10 patients, whereas in the remaining 22 it was necessary to resect and replace a segment or all of the retrohepatic IVC. A concomitant liver resection was performed in 14 patients, nephrectomy in 10 and pancreaticoduodenectomy in 2 patients. There were no acute or late complications related to graft thrombosis or infection. Three patients died as a consequence of multi-organ failure. Overall survival at 1 and 5 years was 78% and 48%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The preferential use of synthetic grafts in IVC replacement is not evidence based. Selection of an appropriate prosthetic graft for IVC reconstruction should be based on the safety and its handling features. The use of biological grafts for IVC repair is a valid alternative to current synthetic materials and may in fact be superior in terms of biocompatability, ease of handling, reduced rate of infection and improved long-term patency without permanent anticoagulation.
