[Indication and operative technique in chronic occlusions of the innominate artery and proximal subclavian artery (author's transl)]. 1980

H J Eisenhardt, and A Zehle, and H Pichlmaier

Surgery is indicated in clinical stage II and cases of subclavian steal syndrome. Endarterectomy by mid-sternotomy is the operation of choice for obliteration of the innominate artery. The lethality rate is 6%. Occlusion of the left proximal subclavian artery can be treated by transthoracic endarterectomy or extrathoracic bypass procedure. The bypass procedure is preferred because of low operative lethality rate (0.8% versus 7% in transthoracic procedure). Occlusions of the right proximal subclavian artery are treated by supraclavicular endarterectomy.

D001157	Arterial Occlusive Diseases	Pathological processes which result in the partial or complete obstruction of ARTERIES. They are characterized by greatly reduced or absence of blood flow through these vessels. They are also known as arterial insufficiency.

D013348	Subclavian Artery	Artery arising from the brachiocephalic trunk on the right side and from the arch of the aorta on the left side. It distributes to the neck, thoracic wall, spinal cord, brain, meninges, and upper limb.	Arteries, Subclavian,Artery, Subclavian,Subclavian Arteries
D013349	Subclavian Steal Syndrome	A clinically significant reduction in blood supply to the BRAIN STEM and CEREBELLUM (i.e., VERTEBROBASILAR INSUFFICIENCY) resulting from reversal of blood flow through the VERTEBRAL ARTERY from occlusion or stenosis of the proximal subclavian or brachiocephalic artery. Common symptoms include VERTIGO; SYNCOPE; and INTERMITTENT CLAUDICATION of the involved upper extremity. Subclavian steal may also occur in asymptomatic individuals.
