The Short Saphenous Vein: An Alternative to the Long Saphenous Vein for Aortocoronary Bypass

open access: yesThe Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1978
The long saphenous vein and internal mammary artery are considered at present to be the best grafts available for coronary artery bypass. Patients who have had bilateral long saphenous vein stripping and who require multiple aortocoronary bypass grafts present a challenge to the cardiac surgeon.

Leiomyoma of the Saphenous Vein

Postgraduate Medicine, 1971
Tumor of smooth muscle arising from a vein was first described more than 100 years ago. Since then, only four additional tumors arising from the saphenous vein have been reported. This case brings the total to six. Three of the six tumors were malignant.

Leiomyosarcoma of the saphenous vein

The Journal of Pathology, 1975
A case of primary leiomyosarcoma of the greater saphenous vein with metastatic spread to the thyroid gland and subcutaneous tissue is described. The literature of saphenous vein leiomyosarcomas is reviewed.

The Saphenous Vein

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1977
At the symposium on venous problems sponsored by Northwestern University in honor of the eminent surgeon and scholar, Geza de Takats, MD, (Chicago, Dec 2-4, 1976) a number of distinguished participants agreed that unnecessary surgical removal of the greater saphenous vein seriously compromises later arterial reconstruction required by some patients ...

Saphenous vein In situ bypass

The American Journal of Surgery, 1990
Revascularization of the ischemic diabetic extremity presents a significant diagnostic and technical challenge. The in situ saphenous bypass provides a conduit that allows revascularization to arteries at the ankle and proximal foot. Evaluation of the distal circulation, the adequacy of the saphenous vein, and routine follow-up after bypass, along with

Saphenous Vein Graft Interventions

Interventional Cardiology Clinics, 2016
Saphenous 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

In Situ Saphenous Vein Bypass

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

Pharmacology of the Human Saphenous Vein

Current Vascular Pharmacology, 2011
Nowadays, 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.
