Reconstruction of the iliofemoral venous circulation using internal jugular vein autograft.

Two patients with recurrent tumour masses in the groin which involved the common femoral vessels underwent en bloc resection of the tumour, vessels and adjacent anterior abdominal wall. Arterial reconstruction used autologous saphenous vein or polytetrafluorethylene graft. Venous reconstruction was with autologous internal jugular vein.
