Distribution of saphenous vein valves and its pratical importance
Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery, 2014 Objective: Among the veins used as a graft in myocardial revascularizations and ends, great saphenous vein is the most used. Knowing the presence and location of valves has great importance when evaluating the surgical anatomy of the great saphenous vein.
