Twenty-Five Years of No-Touch Saphenous Vein Harvesting for Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting: Structural Observations and Impact on Graft Performance [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery, 2020
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.

Anatomy of Fascial Canal of Great Saphenous Vein: An Observational Study [PDF]

International Journal of Anatomy Radiology and Surgery, 2021
Introduction: The fascial canal for great saphenous vein has a variable presence throughout the course of the vein. The anatomy of great saphenous vein and its tributary becomes complicated owing to interruptions and variability of the saphenous ...

Fetal variant anatomy of great saphenous vein [PDF]

Archives of the Balkan Medical Union, 2020
Introduction. The accumulated factual material about the topography of the great saphenous vein is extremely contradictory. Therefore, an individual approach is necessary to study the age-related anatomical variability of the large saphenous vein in ...

External stenting and disease progression in saphenous vein grafts two years after coronary artery bypass grafting: A multicenter randomized trial.

Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2021
OBJECTIVES Little data exist regarding the potential of external stents to mitigate long-term disease progression in saphenous vein grafts. We investigated the effect of external stents on the progression of saphenous vein graft disease.

Retrograde endovenous laser ablation of the great saphenous vein using the superficial inferior epigastric vein as access vessel illustrated by a case report

SAGE Open Medical Case Reports, 2021
Endovenous thermal ablation is a first-line treatment for symptomatic varicose veins due to truncal vein reflux. Ablation of an incompetent great saphenous vein is usually performed from distally, with the vein access at the lowest point of reflux, or ...
