Pathobiology of Saphenous Vein Grafts
The long saphenous vein graft is the commonest conduit used for coronary artery bypass surgery. The short and long term success of the procedure depends on the patency of these bypass grafts. Vein graft disease can be divided into early (in the fi rst 30 days), intermediate (1 month to 1 year) and late (over 1 year).
