Vascular Grafts and the Endothelium

Endothelium, 2006
This article discusses the importance of the endothelium for successful vascular grafts derived from both native arteries and synthetic materials. It also discusses the fundamental strategies to endothelialize synthetic grafts in animal experiments and in the clinic, as well as the use of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs), bone marrow-derived cells ...

VASCULARIZED BONE GRAFTS

Orthopedics, 1994
ABSTRACT Free vascularized bone grafts allow living bone tissue to be transplanted to replace a bone defect. The use of vascularized bone grafts requires microvascular dissection and attachment to a recipient site artery and vein, whereas rotational or pedicle grafts are moved, while still attached to their blood supply, to a new site ...

Elastin in Vascular Grafts

2019
The clinical demand for a superior vascular graft is rising due to the increase in cardiovascular disease with an aging population. Despite decades of research, clinically translatable solutions remain limited. Recent progress in vascular graft engineering has highlighted the significance of biological integration for the success of implanted grafts ...

Endothelialization of vascular grafts

Current Opinion in Cardiology, 1991
Although work on endothelial cell seeding of vascular prostheses was first published in 1978, no clinical breakthrough had yet been achieved. Clinical data on single-staged procedures using freshly harvested autologous venous or microvascular endothelial cells are scarce and controversial.

The Pathology of Vascular Grafts

1994
In order to analyse the incorporation pattern of synthetic prosthesis made of Teflon and Dacron in the arterial system, 21 prostheses removed surgically and seven prostheses obtained from autopsies were examined; the duration of the implantation periods ranged from 30 min up to 10 years. Essentially the early phase of prosthetic incorporation (phase I)

Vascularization of Skin Grafts

Nature, 1971
THE question of how skin grafts are revascularized is still not resolved1–3. In particular, it is not known whether the vessels in the vascular bed of a graft derive from the host or the donor. In what follows, we provide three independent lines of evidence which suggest that in full-thickness skin grafts, the vessels are native to the graft at least ...

Vascular Graft Infection

Infectious Disease Clinics of North America, 1989
This article presents a discussion of the management of vascular prosthetic infections. The emphasis is on aortic graft infections, but other peripheral graft infections are also discussed.

Bypass grafting in patients with infected vascular grafts

Angiology and vascular surgery, 2020
Analysed herein are the results of treating a total of 17 patients presenting with pathology of the aorta and lower-limb arteries, who from 2010 to 2018 required redo interventions due to infection of a previously implanted synthetic vascular graft.

Vascularized Ulnar Nerve Graft

Techniques in Hand & Upper Extremity Surgery, 2006
The purpose of this article is to describe the indications, anatomy, and harvesting technique of vascularized ulnar nerve graft based on the superior ulnar collateral artery (SUCA) for reconstruction of upper extremity function. The ulnar nerve has an extrinsic blood supply consisting of multiple dominant systems: the SUCA, the inferior ulnar ...
