Subject: Aortoiliac bypass graft versus aortic-iliac bypass graft

Can someone tell me whether aortoiliac bypass graft or aortic-iliac bypass graft is proper? I seem to find it both ways when I do a Google search.  Is there a difference?

How Is Peripheral Vascular Disease Treated?


There are two basic ways to treat atherosclerotic disease: medication, surgery, and minimally invasive interventional procedures such as stent implantation and percutaneous transluminal angioplasty. The purpose of these treatments is to eliminate or reduce the symptoms you may have.


Medications can be used alone or in combination with one of the treatments. While medications do not eliminate the narrowing of arteries, they can help improve the efficiency of the heart and reduce symptoms such as leg pain, claudication, and hypertension.


In some cases, bypass surgery may be required in the peripheral arteries if the atherosclerosis is severe enough. Bypass surgery is a way of creating new channels to carry blood around the blocked areas in your peripheral arteries. With the patient under general anesthesia, surgeons take a portion of a small blood vessel from the leg or chest to use as the new "bypass artery." They sew or "graft" one end of the bypass to the affected artery and the other end to the artery beyond the narrowed area. Blood then flows through the new grafted vessel, "bypassing" or avoiding the blockage in the peripheral artery.


Some of the common surgeries in the peripheral anatomy are femoral-popliteal bypass (for the legs) and renal artery bypass (for the kidneys).

The above knee popliteal artery was identified distal in the adductor canal and dissected out behind the knee and encircled proximal and distal with silastic tapes. A large calcification of both vessels was noted. A s/l Skanlin tunneler was used to create a subcutaneous tunnel.

I cannot confirm this "type" of trocar. It does not s/l "Veirs"-type trocar to me.

An incision was made above and to the left of the umbilicus, through which a #5/12 Visiport US Surgical trocar was inserted under direct vision into the peritoneal cavity. This was followed by placing another #5/12 trocar in the left upper quadrant. Another #5/12 trocar was placed in the epigastric region to the right of the midline. Another #5/12 trocar _____**s/l "varices"-type trocar was placed between the supraumbilical and the left upper quadrant trocar site. The abdomen was insufflated, and all the trocar sites were placed under direct vision.

I'm doing an op note dictated by an ESL and he's referring to a stapler that he's using to create the anastomosis in a laparoscopic gastric bypass.  It sounds something like Acolumn, Ecolint or Acumint stapler.  I'm so stumped and would welcome any hints on how to figure out what the heck he's saying!
