2 Summary of venous bypass literature for below knee bypass large Meta analysis with numerous publications Dalmann & Taylor (Ann Vasc Surg 1990) review of publications from Ziegler (Ann Vasc Surg 2011) review of publications from only below knee, crural and pedal included Technique: in-situ / reversed / mixed or technique not specified 11 relevant publications from 2010 to 2015 only publications with >100 patients included Total patients (min max ) 7% above knee, 27% below knee, 52% crural, 14% pedal Technique: in-situ / reversed / mixed or technique not specified Slide and data courtesy: Wolfgang Meichelböck and Kim Houlind ESVB 2015

3 Summary of venous bypass literature for below knee bypass Implantation site: Below-knee fem-pop and crural vast majority 90% Pedal - some, above knee fem-pop very few No trend/significant difference in patency or limb salvage rates regarding the technique used Very few publications beyond 5 years results (lots of patients die within 5 years) Patency rates %* 1 year 3 years 5 years Primary patency 75% (58-86%) 69% (39-83%) 60% (32-71%) Secondary patency 85% (70-96%) 78% (70-87%) 73% (60-83%) Limb salvage 89% (79-94%) 82% (72-87%) 81% (66-89%) *non-weighted average of all publications (range) Excellent long term patency and limb salvage rates make the venous bypass still the first choice for revascularization in critical limb ischemia (CLI) Slide and data courtesy: Wolfgang Meichelböck and Kim Houlind ESVB 2015

4 Biosynthetic prosthesis to resemble autologous vein Haemocompatible Smooth, non-thrombogenic flow surface Good long-term patency, even with poor runoff Biocompatible Rapidly integrated into host tissue Good resistance to infection Rapid haemostasis after puncturing Non-porous No seeping or seroma formation No needle-hole bleeding No tissue ingrowth Good compliance Little intimal hyperplasia Can be anastomosed directly to peripheral blood vessels No need for cuffs, patches or jump grafts

5 Biosynthetic prosthesis: Omniflow II The Omniflow II prosthesis is a biosynthetic device formed from stabilised sheep collagen with an integral polyester mesh. It is produced by inserting polyester mesh-covered mandrels beneath the cutaneous muscle of adult sheep for a period of weeks. The collagen-encapsulated tubes are harvested and stabilised using glutaraldehyde. From : Bio Nova International Pty Ltd, Melbourne, Australia

6 Rapid integration into host tissue From : Bio Nova International Pty Ltd, Melbourne, Australia

7 Technical details Handles like a saphenous vein Thin and supple Cut, trimmed and shaped with ease Easy to suture Excellent suture retention Minimal suture-hole bleeding with standard sutures Can be anastomosed directly to peripheral vessels No need for cuffs, patches or jump grafts

8 Omniflow Femoro-popliteal bypass - early results (Koch et al. University Graz Austria ) 274 patients, mean 70 y (41-88y) CLI (III/VI) 274 (100%) Patency / limb salvage at 3 years (above 3 y SE >5%) Patency Ruf-Off Above knee Below knee Crural (2y) Results: Mortality 3 (1.1%) 6 (2.1%) wound infections No (0%) grafts infection 3 aneurysmal dilatations Primary Good (2-3 vessels) 62% 55% Primary Bad (0-1, ips) 44% 35% 29% Secondary Good (2-3 vessels) 76% 59% Secondary Bad (0-1, ips) 65% 46% 36% Limb salvage 81% 71% 60% 111 (41%) no antiplatelet or OAC medication at all!! Conclusion: The Omniflow prosthesis in general was found both to perform adequately as a vascular prosthesis when autogenous conduits were unavailable Koch G, et al.

12 Omniflow II infrainguinal graft bypass revascularization: a preliminary analysis of 79 patients From 2002 to 2016: 748 infrainguinal bypass performed in our institution. We have identified 79 patients undergone peripheral vascular reconstruction with Omniflow II. Method and Data analysis: Retrospective All medical records have been reviewed. Graft Patency: Patency has been counted with the last information of patency in the medical records. Limb Salvage: Patients without recent information on patency have been called (Dec-2016) and interviewed by telephone regarding major amputation (patency was not counted, as the bypass could also be occluded)

All patients are discharged with own admission therapy. In that case all of them had an antiplatelet + statin. We prescribe OAT for bypass patency purpose only if the patient has a bypass thrombosis after discharge despite the antiplatelet therapy.

25 Omniflow II infrainguinal graft bypass revascularization: a preliminary analysis of 79 patients. Conclusion For us the Omniflow II prosthesis serves as an excellent option which showed very good long term results. The Omniflow II is our preferred bypass material in many cases (critical patient, infection site, redo surgery) Vein still remains the preferred bypass material but for the Biosynthetic Prosthesis we need more trials (national data base)
