Leiomyosarcoma of the Long Saphenous Vein
American Journal of Clinical Pathology, 1975An unusual instance of primary leiomyosarcoma of the left long saphenous vein, possibly the tenth recorded case, is presented. Leiomyosarcoma of large veins appears to be a distinct entity, in contrast to the benign counterpart, leiomyoma. The origin of the tumor from the vessel wall, its intraluminal growth, and its ultrastructure are demonstrated ...

Saphenous Vein Graft Interventions
Interventional Cardiology Clinics, 2016Saphenous vein graft interventions compose a small but important subset of percutaneous coronary revascularization. Because of their unique biology, percutaneous angioplasty and stenting require tailored patient and lesion selection and modification of intervention technique to optimize outcomes. The use of embolic protection and appropriate adjunctive

Archives of Surgery, 1982
Our 20-year results with in situ saphenous vein grafting in the lower extremity were reviewed and compared wih those where reversed saphenous veins were employed. The ten-year patency rates for both types of grafts terminating at the popliteal artery ranged from 41% to 43% and showed no statistical difference. The reversed saphenous vein performed well

Stripping and Ligation of the Saphenous Vein
Seminars in Cutaneous Medicine and Surgery, 2005Successful varicose vein surgery depends on accurate preoperative assessment and individualized treatment for various combinations of venous insufficiency. Noninvasive duplex scanning is currently the gold standard in varicose vein evaluation. Flush ligation and division of the great saphenous vein and its tributaries, inverted downward stripping to ...

Pharmacology of the Human Saphenous Vein
Current Vascular Pharmacology, 2011Nowadays, the great saphenous vein is the vascular conduit that is most frequently employed in coronary and peripheral revascularization surgery. It is known that saphenous vein bypass grafts have shorter patency than arterial ones, partly because the wall of the normal saphenous vein has different structural and functional characteristics.

Endoscopic Saphenous Vein Harvesting
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1997Although the use of arterial conduit has decreased the amount of saphenous vein required for routine coronary artery bypass grafting, the saphenous vein as a bypass conduit remains an essential component of most practices. We describe the technique of endoscopic vein harvest that, in our initial experience with 30 patients, has improved patient ...

Endovenous Ablation of the Saphenous Vein
Perspectives in Vascular Surgery and Endovascular Therapy, 2008The introduction of the minimally invasive, endovenous thermal techniques of superficial reflux ablation have revolutionized the treatment of varicose veins in the last 8 years. The ease of performance even in an office setting, reduced discomfort, and quicker return to normal activity have resulted in universally superior patient acceptance and have ...

Surgery of the Saphenous Veins
2000The concept that advanced cutaneous changes of chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) are the result of prior deep venous thrombosis continues to inhibit care of limbs with these stigmata. This is true despite the fact that it is known that primary valvular incompetence, not just prior thrombosis, is an important cause of venous ulceration.1 Dysfunction of

Mucormycosis of a Saphenous Vein Autograft
Archives of Surgery, 1970Infection of a saphenous vein graft with mucormycosis resulted in recurrent perforation of the graft. Although the incidence ofMucorinfection is increasing, vascular endothelium is not a common site of infection. General debility and the administration of antibiotics appear to predispose to infection with mucormycosis and these factors were present in ...

Leiomyosarcoma of the great saphenous vein
Australasian Radiology, 2006SummaryPeripheral vascular leiomyosarcomas are rare. A case of leiomyosarcoma of the great saphenous vein diagnosed pre‐surgically by MRI and fine‐needle aspiration is presented. Characteristics of the tumour and imaging features are discussed.
