Abstract.

We believe that this is the first report of a gasless endoscopic in situ bypass technique. We have pursued this minimally invasive procedure with the hope that wound complications and operative time might be improved without compromising graft patency. Having demonstrated the feasibility of minimally invasive lower-extremity bypass we would urge further study to assess the safety and efficacy of this promising approach.
