Spontaneous recanalization of a total occlusion of an infrarenal abdominal aorta after left axillary-bifemoral bypass

Acute aortic occlusion is an infrequent clinical event with high morbidity and mortality. Management is determined by the cause of the occlusion, with thromboembolectomy used for embolic events and bypass for thrombotic events. After bypass, recanalization of a total aortic occlusion has been sparse...
