[Endoscopic saphenous vein harvesting for coronary artery bypass grafting].
BACKGROUND Traditional great saphenous vein harvest for coronary artery bypass grafting is associated with a significant risk of impaired wound healing. Endoscopic saphenous vein harvesting (EVH) has been introduced in an effort to reduce the incidence of leg-wound complications, whereas the histological quality and long-term patency of harvested grafts are comparable with grafts harvested by m...
متن کاملSimultaneous endoscopic radial artery and great saphenous vein harvesting for redo coronary artery bypass grafting. A report of two cases.
AIM An ageing population and increase in patient co-morbidities are forcing cardiac surgeons to meticulously consider the benefits and risks of respective conduits and their harvesting techniques. CASE REPORTS Two cases of simultaneous endoscopic radial artery and great saphenous vein harvesting, for redo coronary artery bypass grafting, are presented. A shortage of venous conduits after prev...
متن کاملThrombosed aneurysm of saphenous vein coronary artery bypass grafting.
We describe the case of a male patient, aged 76 years, referred for cardiac investigation due to retrosternal chest pain and dyspnea. He had a history of acute myocardial infarction and angioplasties in the last 30 years, including a saphenous vein coronary artery bypass grafting (SVCABG). Echocardiogram showed hypoechoic oval formation near the right ventricle, suggesting a pericardial cyst. C...
متن کاملEndoscopic radial artery harvesting procedure for coronary artery bypass grafting.
Development and adoption of endoscopic minimally invasive saphenous vein harvesting prompted its application to the radial artery in an effort to minimize surgical trauma. Recently, we reported that endoscopic radial artery harvesting was associated with better wound appearance and it proved to be safe and effective, with less pain and fewer wound complications than the open surgical technique....
متن کاملNovel no-touch technique of harvesting the saphenous vein for coronary artery bypass grafting.
BACKGROUND Optimization of the saphenous vein for myocardial revascularization. OBJECTIVE To present the no-touch technique of the saphenous vein preparation. This technique consists of harvesting the vein with a pedicle of surrounding tissue, which protects the vein from spasms, obviating the need for distension. METHODS A prospective, randomized study with 156 patients who underwent arter...
