Preparo da veia safena na cirurgia de revascularização miocárdica: uma nova técnica -no touch- que mantém a parede da veia íntegra e proporciona uma alta perviabilidade imediata [PDF]

, 2003
BACKGROUND: The technique of harvesting the saphenous vein (SV) for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) influences the fate of vein grafts. A new no touch (NT) technique of SV preparation was developed where the vein is harvested with a pedicle of ...

Twenty-Five Years of No-Touch Saphenous Vein Harvesting for Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting: Structural Observations and Impact on Graft Performance [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery
The saphenous vein is the most common conduit used in coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) yet its failure rate is higher compared to arterial grafts. An improvement in saphenous vein graft performance is therefore a major priority in CABG.

High stretch induces endothelial dysfunction accompanied by oxidative stress and actin remodeling in human saphenous vein endothelial cells

Scientific Reports, 2021
The rate of the remodeling of the arterialized saphenous vein conduit limits the outcomes of coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG), which may be influenced by endothelial dysfunction.

Choice of autogenous conduit for lower extremity vein graft revisions [PDF]

, 1937
Background: Surgical revision to repair stenosis is necessary in about 20% of lower extremity vein grafts (LEVGs). Alternate conduit, especially arm vein, is often necessary to achieve a policy of all-autogenous revisions.

Antithrombotic therapy in patients receiving saphenous vein coronary artery bypass grafts: a protocol for a systematic review and network meta-analysis. [PDF]

, 2018
INTRODUCTION: The current evidence for the prevention of saphenous vein graft failure (SVGF) after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery consists of direct head-to-head comparison of treatments (including placebo) in randomised-controlled trials ...

Lateral Femoral Circumflex Arterial System as Donor Vessels for Extremity Replantation

Journal of Reconstructive Microsurgery Open, 2016
Background Forearm replantation presents with many challenges, including the need for vascular graft material for revascularization. Although frequently harvested for vascular reconstruction, the saphenous vein is often suboptimal for use as vascular ...

Microscopic and ultrastructural evaluation of the saphenous vein endothelium for CABG prepared by the no touch technique [PDF]

, 2008
OBJECTIVE: Saphenous vein grafts (SV) used in coronary artery bypass grafting have a limited life and vein occlusion may be the final adverse effect. Efforts to develop new techniques to harvest the saphenous vein may improve the viability of the graft ...

The Impact of Vein Mechanical Compliance on Arteriovenous Fistula Outcomes [PDF]

, 2016
© 2016 Elsevier Inc. Background Arteriovenous fistulae (AVFs) are the preferred access for hemodialysis but suffer a high early failure rate. The aim of this study was to determine how venous distensibility, as measured in vitro, relates to early ...

Acute arterial occlusion due to thrombotic occlusion of the great saphenous vein graft following popliteal artery aneurysm surgery: a case report

Annals of Vascular Surgery - Brief Reports and Innovations
Popliteal artery aneurysms require treatment in symptomatic cases or when the aneurysm diameter exceeds 20 mm, with graft replacement using the great saphenous vein being one of the most common treatment options. Although aneurysmal degeneration of great
