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

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

Endoscopic saphenous vein harvest in neurosurgery: Technical note
Background: Endoscopic saphenous vein (SV) graft harvesting was introduced in the neurosurgical field as an attractive alternative to open SV graft harvesting. Methods: The left leg was draped, and the subcutaneous vein was identified by ultrasonography.

Small‐diameter vascular grafts with compliance tunable by design are fabricated via melt electrowriting. By controlling the winding angle of intertwined helical fibers, grafts with compliances matching those of human vessels, from veins to arteries, are realized. This holds the potential of avoiding a compliance mismatch, which has been identified as a

OBJECTIVES We used individual patient data from four of the largest contemporary coronary bypass surgery trials to evaluate differences in long-term outcomes when radial artery, right internal thoracic artery, or saphenous vein graft are used to ...
