dc.description.abstractObjective: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the surgical results of patients admitted to hospital with acute upper extremity arterial occlusion. Material and Methods: 157 patients (59 ma le and 98 fe ma le) ad mit ted to hos pi tal with comp la ints of pa in, cya no sis, pal lor on the up per ex tre mity bet we en Ja nu ary 2000 to Ja nu ary 2011 we re analy zed. Me an age was 78.4±9.1 years. The arterial occlusion was on the right upper extremity in 95 cases and on the left in 62. All patients were operated under local anesthesia for thromboembolectomy. The most frequent etiology for occlusion was cardiac in 127 (80.9%) cases. Results: Re-embolectomy required in 5 (3.2%) of patients after upper extremity thromboembolectomy. Compartment syndrome that require fasciotomy didn't develop. Also amputation was not required. Two patients developed wound infection. Mortality was only in one patient due to cerebral embolism. Conclusion: Surgical thromboembolectomy after acute upper extremity arterial occlusion can be performed with low mortality and morbidity. Investigation of etiologic factors and postoperative heparinization will reduce the risk of recurrence of embolic occlusion. Copyright © 2012 by Türkiye Klinikleri.en_US
