Direct Retrograde Femoral Aortography

Abstract
OWING to the advances in vascular surgery corrective operative procedures for arterial disease are now commonly performed. Accurate preoperative information is helpful to evaluate the type and extent of the surgery. The use of femoral arteriography is well established as a safe and practical method.
