Fabrication of strong, bioactive vascular grafts with PCL/collagen and PCL/silica bilayers for small-diameter vascular applications

Materials & Design, 2019
In vascular surgical applications, small-diameter vascular grafts made from synthetic polymers are rarely commercialized, owing to delayed reendothelialization and subsequent thrombus formation and occlusion.

Prosthetic vascular graft infection

Journal of British Surgery, 1992
Abstract The aetiology, diagnosis and management of prosthetic vascular graft infection are reviewed. The importance of contamination at the time of surgery as the crucial aetiological factor is highlighted. Staphylococcus epidermidis is the causative organism in over 50 per cent of cases and the reasons for this are explored.
