Traumatic disruption of iliofemoral arterial segment is often associated with multiple injuries, massive hemorrhage, state of shock, and loss of blood supply to the ipsilateral lower extremity, as well as with high mortality. The investigators describe a bypass technique. It can provide adequate blood supply to the lower extremity of the injury side. Due to a minimum amount of additional blood loss, it is a low risk procedure for salvage of the extremity and even patient's life.
