Abstract

Emergency surgery was performed to treat acute lower limb ischemia caused by heart thromboembolism and concomitant popliteal artery aneurysm. Using a near-infrared spectroscopy oximeter, regional tissue oxygen saturation (rSO2) was monitored to assess the tissue perfusion pre-, intra-, and postoperatively. rSO2 values did not increase sufficiently following thromboembolectomy of the superficial femoral artery, but they dramatically recovered after additional popliteal-anterior tibial bypass surgery. The affected limb was successfully salvaged. rSO2 monitoring was easily measured intraoperatively, which might be beneficial in evaluating tissue perfusion in patients with acute limb ischemia.
