Towards Endoscopic No-Touch Saphenous Vein Graft Harvesting in Coronary Bypass Surgery [PDF]

Saphenous Vein Graft Intervention
Saphenous vein grafts are commonly used conduits for surgical revascularization of coronary arteries but are associated with poor long-term patency rates. Percutaneous revascularization of saphenous vein grafts is associated with worse clinical outcomes including higher rates of in-stent restenosis, target vessel revascularization, myocardial ...
