In situ vein grafts to the distal tibial arteries and foot are a tedious, meticulous, but rewarding and cost-effective procedure for limb salvage in suitable cases. Life table cumulative patency was 60% at six years in 211 long vein grafts. Limb salvage is 75% at six years. This video demonstrates the details of this surgical procedure and follow-up.
