COLLADO OTERO, Juan C; PAREDES LOPEZ, Dagmar  and  VAZQUEZ, José M. Role of vascular replacement surgery in the metastatic arterial infiltration. Rev Cubana Cir [online]. 2008, vol.47, n.1, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1561-2945.

The case of a 40-year-old female conventionally treated due to an infiltrating epidermoid carcinoma of the anal canal with basaloid pattern was presented. The further evolution allowed to recognize the subsequent appearance of ganglionic metastases in the right inguinocrural region 6 months later. Doppler echography of the iliofemoral territory indicated displacement and common arterial femoral compression with infiltration of the vessel wall that was effectively treated by radical excision of the metastasis and femoral vascular reconstruction with venous graft of the saphena . Good functional results were obtained

Keywords : Anal canal cancer; femoral vascular reconstruction; metastatic femoral arterial infiltration.
