A novel technique of tunneled venous conduit retrieval for femoropopliteal artery bypass
We would like to report a novel technique in the use of endoscopically retrieved reverse saphenous vein for femoropopliteal bypass grafting. A common mishap encountered while tunneling reversed saphenous vein is avulsion of side branches.

Abstract Arthroscopic techniques have gradually replaced open surgery as a routine method for treating posterior cruciate ligament tibial avulsion fractures. However, traditional arthroscopic surgery is associated with problems such as limited visualization, unstable fixation, and unsatisfactory reduction.

Twenty-Five Years of No-Touch Saphenous Vein Harvesting for Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting: Structural Observations and Impact on Graft Performance [PDF]
The saphenous vein is the most common conduit used in coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) yet its failure rate is higher compared to arterial grafts. An improvement in saphenous vein graft performance is therefore a major priority in CABG.

The Cutaneous Branch of the Obturator Nerve: Common Finding or a Rarity Worthy of Note
ABSTRACT According to textbook descriptions, branches of the femoral and obturator nerves provide the sensory innervation to the medial side of the thigh. However, as the exact prevalence of the obturator nerve's cutaneous branch is unknown, an anatomic study was conducted to reveal its role in providing cutaneous innervation to the medial thigh ...

Predictive factors of late venous aortocoronary graft failure: ultrastructural studies. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Venous aortocoronary graft arterialization may precede a preterm occlusion in some coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) patients. The aim of the present study was to identify ultrastructural variations in the saphenous vein wall that may ...

Saphenous vein graft aneurysm [PDF]
A 64-year-old Caucasian man with a history of hypertension, diabetes, Raynaud’s phenomenon and coronary artery bypass grafting presented with chest pain and syncope. The echocardiogram revealed an extracardiac mass (arrow) with compression of the atrium (Figure 1).

ABSTRACT For effective and safe practice, health professionals need an understanding of functional anatomy. Registration boards, councils or self‐regulating professional associations determine the standards, codes, graduate competencies and education program accreditation requirements which inform health curricula development and content.

The suture button technique can cause damage to the saphenous vein and nerve. We examined the location and course of the great saphenous vein using magnetic resonance imaging and determined its position at 10, 20, 30, or 40 mm proximal to the tibial ...

ABSTRACT The deltoid ligament complex (DLC) is well‐known as an ankle joint stabilizer; however, through the superficial DLC, it also acts at the subtalar joint and helps to maintain the medial longitudinal arch. DLC repair in the presence of an ankle fracture remains a topic of controversy in the current literature.

An Unusual Course and Termination of Small Saphenous Vein: A Case Report [PDF]
The superficial veins of the lower limb can vary in their course and termination. We report a relatively rare type of variation in the course and termination of small saphenous vein.
