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.

Endoscopic Saphenous Vein Harvesting

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1997
Although the use of arterial conduit has decreased the amount of saphenous vein required for routine coronary artery bypass grafting, the saphenous vein as a bypass conduit remains an essential component of most practices. We describe the technique of endoscopic vein harvest that, in our initial experience with 30 patients, has improved patient ...

Endovenous Ablation of the Saphenous Vein

Perspectives in Vascular Surgery and Endovascular Therapy, 2008
The introduction of the minimally invasive, endovenous thermal techniques of superficial reflux ablation have revolutionized the treatment of varicose veins in the last 8 years. The ease of performance even in an office setting, reduced discomfort, and quicker return to normal activity have resulted in universally superior patient acceptance and have ...

Surgery of the Saphenous Veins

2000
The concept that advanced cutaneous changes of chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) are the result of prior deep venous thrombosis continues to inhibit care of limbs with these stigmata. This is true despite the fact that it is known that primary valvular incompetence, not just prior thrombosis, is an important cause of venous ulceration.1 Dysfunction of

Mucormycosis of a Saphenous Vein Autograft

Archives of Surgery, 1970
Infection of a saphenous vein graft with mucormycosis resulted in recurrent perforation of the graft. Although the incidence ofMucorinfection is increasing, vascular endothelium is not a common site of infection. General debility and the administration of antibiotics appear to predispose to infection with mucormycosis and these factors were present in ...

Leiomyosarcoma of the great saphenous vein

Australasian Radiology, 2006
SummaryPeripheral vascular leiomyosarcomas are rare. A case of leiomyosarcoma of the great saphenous vein diagnosed pre‐surgically by MRI and fine‐needle aspiration is presented. Characteristics of the tumour and imaging features are discussed.

Proximal saphenous vein cutdown

Annals of Emergency Medicine, 1981
An anatomical review and venesection technique for the proximal greater saphenous vein is described. It is recommended as an additional intravenous approach for rapid volume resuscitation in the patient with profound hypovolemic shock.

Leiomyosarcoma of the great saphenous vein

International Orthopaedics, 1992
Primary malignant tumours of the great saphenous vein are extremely rare with only 15 cases reported in the English literature since 1919. We report a patient who survived 5.5 years after treatment with surgery and chemotherapy before dying from lung metastases.

LONG SAPHENOUS VEIN HARVESTING

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Surgery, 1986
There is described an easy and rapid technique using the Mayo Vein Stripper to facilitate safe harvesting of the long saphenous vein for vascular reconstruction. It provides good quality vein and a superior cosmetic result without wound complications.

The Long Saphenous Vein Compartment

Phlebology: The Journal of Venous Disease, 1997
Objective: To define the relationship between the long saphenous vein and the connective framework of the subcutaneous tissue (hypodermis) of the lower limb. Methods: The connective skeleton of the hypodermis was studied by anatomical dissection, stereomicroscopy of cross-sectioned specimens and ultrasound imaging in 88 lower extremities.
