Late rupture of a saphenous vein aortorenal graft.
نویسندگان
چکیده
It is well known that aortorenal venous grafts can dilate, whereas actual rupture has not been reported. However, rupture of aortocoronary vein grafts has been reported. Dilations at this site are relatively less common, but such bypass grafting procedures are much more commonly performed, so the potential for rupture of dilated vein grafts is apparent. We report the first known rupture of a dilated aortorenal vein graft.

Pseudoaneurysm of aortocoronary vein graft secondary to late venous rupture: case report and literature review.
Formation of pseudoaneurysms of saphenous vein grafts after coronary artery bypass grafting has been reported previously in relation to anastomoses or secondary to infection. Pseudoaneurysm of the saphenous vein graft after late rupture of the saphenous vein and containment by the obliterated pericardial cavity has not been documented. Such a case is reported and published reports of similar ca...
متن کاملRuptured Atheromatous Plaques in Saphenous Vein Coronary Artery Bypass Grafts: A Mechanism
Although early occlusion of saphenous vein coronary artery bypass grafts is usually thrombotic, late occlusion is most often a result of progressive intimal fibromuscular proliferation or atheroma formation in the implanted vein. We describe another mechanism of late graft occlusion: atheromatous plaque rupture with superimposed occlusive thrombosis. Four men, ages 48-67 years underwent repeat ...

متن کاملRupture of a saphenous vein bypass graft during coronary angioplasty.
A self-limited rupture of a five month old saphenous vein bypass graft occurred during coronary angioplasty when the balloon used to stretch the vessel proved to be too large. A lack of fibrous tissue in the new graft may have predisposed it to rupture.
