The Usefulness of Biosynthetic Vascular Graft Omniflow II and Autologous Veins for the Treatment of Massive Infection of Dacron Vascular Graft with Enterococcus faecalis HLAR [PDF]

open access: yesPolish Journal of Microbiology, 2016
Infections of vascular grafts are the most severe complications in vascular surgery. We present the case of a 73-year-old male with infection of a dacron prosthesis with a strain of Enterococcus faecalis.

Vascular grafting strategies in coronary intervention

open access: yesFrontiers in Materials, 2014
With the growing need for coronary revascularizations globally, several strategies to restore blood flow to the heart have been explored. Bypassing the atherosclerotic coronary arteries with autologous grafts, synthetic prostheses and tissue-engineered ...

Efficacy of non-obstructive aortic angioscopy for detecting a thoracic aortic graft rupture: a case report

open access: yesSurgical Case Reports, 2022
Background Non-anastomotic thoracic aortic graft rupture is extremely rare and difficult to diagnose. Non-obstructive general angioscopy can help monitor the aortic intima and detect the locations of abnormal findings, while aortic angioscopy can detect ...

Infection in prosthetic material [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Surgical site infection (SSI) occurs when a wound created as part of a surgical procedure becomes infected. SSI is one of the most common healthcare-associated infections and occurs in approximately 5% of patients undergoing a surgical procedure. SSI may

Bioengineered Small-Diameter Vascular Xenografts as an Alternative to Autologous Vascular Grafting for Emergency Revascularization – a Preliminary Study

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Emergencies, 2023
Autologous vascular arterial or venous graft are not available in 10-40% of patients, due to vascular pathologies, and the utility of decellularized biological scaffolds would be a solution for those cases.
