About 1 to 5 percent of patients affected by chronic obstructive venous disease of the lower extremity, are eligible to surgical treatment, by veno-venous bypass, for the relief of unerely invalidating symptoms. Indications to operation include a class II to III chronic venous insufficiency of the deep venous system, failure of medical treatment continued for at least 12 months, good patency of outflow axis, a significant gradient of pressure between discared and outflow axis, a good quality saphenous vein to be utilized for bypass. The case of an aged patient, successfully treated with a femoro-femoral venous bypass, associating an artero venous fistula, is presented and indications to the operation in the older patients, together with indication to and technical details of performing the fistula are discussed.
