Abstract
Endarteriectomy is an operation originally proposed by Dos Santos in which a thrombus and the portion of the arterial wall to which it is attached are removed and the lumen of the artery re-established. The technic of this operation is described. Case histories of several patients illustrating the results which the authors have obtained are presented.Keywords
