Endoscopic saphenous vein harvesting versus 'open' technique. A prospective study.
OBJECTIVE Preparation of the great saphenous vein for coronary artery bypass grafts is usually performed through one or many cutaneous incisions. A technique of endoscopic harvesting is now available. An aim of the study was to compare both methods, prospectively. METHODS Sixty coronary artery bypass grafting patients were randomly assigned to two groups according to saphenous vein harvesting...
متن کاملOpen versus endoscopic saphenous vein harvesting: wound complications and vein quality.
BACKGROUND The saphenous vein is an important conduit for coronary artery bypass grafting. Wound complications from traditional open vein harvesting occur often. Minimally invasive endoscopic saphenous vein harvesting may decrease wound complications. Vein quality may be an issue with endoscopic harvesting. METHODS We reviewed 568 patients who had bypass grafting and saphenous vein harvesting...

متن کامل[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 کاملImpact of endoscopic versus open saphenous vein harvest techniques on outcomes after coronary artery bypass grafting.
BACKGROUND Endoscopic saphenous vein harvest (EVH) decreases leg wound infections and improves cosmesis after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Recent data, however, suggest that EVH may be associated with reduced graft patency rates. The objective of this study is to assess the effect of EVH on short-term and midterm outcomes after CABG. METHODS Data were prospectively collected on all...
