Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Transobturator bypass is an older and less frequently performed revascularization of the lower extremity that is useful in the setting of multiple failed lower extremity bypasses usually due to groin sepsis and infection(s). It can be a technically challenging operation due to anatomic constraints. REPORT: We describe a successful transobturator bypass utilizing fluoroscopy for passage of bypass tunneler and graft through the obturator foramen. DISCUSSION: Live fluoroscopy is a versatile technique and in conjunction with our described surgical technique of lower extremity bypass should help increase the technical success rates of this procedure.
