Calcification of Synthetic Vascular Grafts: A Systematic Review

open access: yesEJVES Vascular Forum, 2023
Objective: Calcification of vascular grafts, including polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) grafts may contribute to graft failure, but is under reported.

In vivo recellularization of xenogeneic vascular grafts decellularized with high hydrostatic pressure method in a porcine carotid arterial interpose model.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Autologous vascular grafts are widely used in revascularization surgeries for small caliber targets. However, the availability of autologous conduits might be limited due to prior surgeries or the quality of vessels.

Vascular endothelial growth factor attenuates neointimal hyperplasia of decellularized small-diameter vascular grafts by modulating the local inflammatory response

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Small-diameter vascular grafts (diameter <6 mm) are in high demand in clinical practice. Neointimal hyperplasia, a common complication after implantation of small-diameter vascular grafts, is one of the common causes of graft failure.

Towards clinical translation of upscaled osteogenic grafts using human adipose tissue progenitors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Tissue engineering is an emerging strategy in medical field that focuses on regeneration or replacement of lost or damaged tissue and organs. Most of the tissues in human body have no or limited self renewal and regeneration potential which decrease with

THE EFFECT OF POLYMER TYPE AND FIBER ORIENTATION ON THE COMPLIANCE PROPERTIES OF ELECTROSPUN VASCULAR GRAFTS

open access: yes, 2023
Vascular diseases are a major source of fatalities globally. However, the lack of accessibility of autologous vessels and the poor efficacy of commercial small-diameter vascular grafts limit surgical alternatives.

Intraluminal application of vascular endothelial growth factor enhances healing of microvascular anastomosis in a rat model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Background: Early reconstitution after injury to the endothelium is an important feature for reducing a number of vessel wall pathologies. We investigated the effect of vascular endothelial growth factor ( VEGF) and its impact on the vascular remodeling ...

Photooxidation and Pentagalloyl Glucose Cross-Linking Improves the Performance of Decellularized Small-Diameter Vascular Xenograft In Vivo

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Small-diameter vascular grafts have a significant need in peripheral vascular surgery and procedures of coronary artery bypass graft (CABG); however, autografts are not always available, synthetic grafts perform poorly, and allografts and xenografts ...

The use of structural and non structural bone grafts and substitutes in osteotomies and arthrodesis of the hindfoot and ankle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Introduction: Hindfoot fusions and osteotomies implicate the decision whether to use an autologous bone graft or an osteoconductive or –inductive substitute material in order to promote bony union and/or to support the correction of an additional ...

Development of Small-Diameter Elastin-Silk Fibroin Vascular Grafts

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021
Globally, increasing mortality from cardiovascular disease has become a problem in recent years. Vascular replacement has been used as a treatment for these diseases, but with blood vessels <6 mm in diameter, existing vascular grafts made of synthetic

Vascular graft infections

open access: yesSwiss Medical Weekly, 2013
Vascular procedures are rarely complicated by infection, but if prosthetic vascular graft infection (PVGI) occurs, morbidity and mortality are high. Several patient-related, surgery-related and postoperative risk factors are reported, but they are not well validated.
