Abstract
Extra-anatomical femoral bypass in hostile condition such as an infected femoral artery pseudoaneurysm has commonly been performed by tunneling a graft via the obturator foramen. However, the rarity of such cases and very selective indications for the obturator bypass procedure (OBP) has resulted in a paucity of improvisation in this surgery. The aim of this article is to briefly discuss the difficulties faced by our team when recently performing an OBP and to highlight possible innovative approaches by introducing a laparoscope to make the blind OBP safer and more precise.
