Intravenous digital subtraction angiography. Collateral circulation to 'empty leg'. 1983

C Conrad, and J Fries

Among 60 patients with uni- or bilateral occlusion of the common or external iliac arteries or both, 12 patients had collateral blood supply originating from the internal mammary or lateral thoracic arteries, or both. By means of intravenous digital subtraction angiography the thoracic arterial pathways and the non-occluded arteries of both legs, simultaneously, were easily demonstrated using the 30 cm effective field size of a Sirecon 33 triplex N image intensifier.
