Apixaban for the treatment of saphenous vein graft thrombosis presenting as unstable angina: a case report [PDF]
Thrombosis Journal, 2017 Background Saphenous vein graft thrombosis can present as unstable angina. However, percutaneous coronary intervention for saphenous vein graft lesions poses a high risk of slow flow related to the procedure.

Towards Endoscopic No-Touch Saphenous Vein Graft Harvesting in Coronary Bypass Surgery [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery, 2022 The saphenous vein is the most used conduit for coronary artery bypass surgery. However, the patency rate of this graft is inferior to the internal thoracic artery patency rate, which is the gold standard.

Internal jugular vein reconstruction using a triple-paneled great saphenous vein graft [PDF]
World Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2023 Background Donor–recipient diameter discrepancy can be problematic when using an autologous great saphenous vein graft for internal jugular vein reconstruction. A triple-paneled method of saphenous vein grafting is one solution.

Pathophysiology and Mechanisms of Saphenous Vein Graft Failure [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery, 2022 Introduction: Coronary artery bypass grafting remains one of the best therapies for advanced coronary artery disease. The most used conduit remains the great saphenous vein, which is susceptible to short-term and long-term failure, the result of acute ...

A reappraisal of saphenous vein grafting
Annals of Saudi Medicine, 2011 Autologous saphenous vein grafting has been broadly used as a bypass conduit, interposition graft, and patch graft in a variety of operations in cardiac, thoracic, neurovascular, general vascular, vascular access, and urology surgeries, since they are ...

Morphological Changes in Endothelial Cell Organelles in a No-Touch Saphenous Vein Graft [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery, 2022 Introduction: Improved long-term patency of the no-touch (NT) saphenous vein graft has been reported to result from the preservation of a healthy vascular microstructure, especially endothelial cells.

Techniques and Outcomes of the No-Touch Vein Conduit as a Y-Composite Graft [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery, 2022 Although the saphenous vein is a widely used conduit for coronary artery bypass grafting, revascularization using the saphenous vein as an aortocoronary bypass graft has shown disadvantages of lower long-term graft patency rates and subsequently worse ...

Saphenous Vein Graft Intervention
JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions, 2011 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 ...
