Apixaban for the treatment of saphenous vein graft thrombosis presenting as unstable angina: a case report [PDF]
, 2017 Background Saphenous vein graft thrombosis can present as unstable angina. However, percutaneous coronary intervention for saphenous vein graft lesions poses a high risk of slow flow related to the procedure.

Administration of perivascular cyanoacrylate for the prevention of cellular damage in saphenous vein grafts: an experimental model [PDF]
, 2016 Objective: The saphenous vein is the most commonly used graft in coronary artery bypass surgery, since no suitable arterial graft is available. However, the frequency of late graft failure is a cause for research into graft protection.
