The great saphenous vein is the longest in human body and has been one of most preferred autologous tissue bypass surgery.It affected by life conditions causing pathological dilatations called varices. We observed bilaterally duplicated saphenousvein both lower limbs an elderly male cadaver during our routine dissection for undergraduate anatomy education. Aftera detailed inspection veins at si...

ver since the observation by Loop et al. (1) that internal horacic arteries (ITA) are more effective coronary artery ypass grafts than saphenous veins in prolonging patient urvival and preventing recurrent ischemic events, cardiohoracic surgeons have tried to improve the results of urgical revascularization by using other arteries as bypass onduits, such as the gastroepiploic, radial, and infer...

The present study determined the vasomotor effects of oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) in human saphenous veins and determined whether decreased availability of L-arginine was responsible for the impaired endothelial function. Human saphenous veins were obtained from white males undergoing coronary bypass surgery. We examined the effects of ox-LDL on ACh-induced endothelium-dependent r...

BACKGROUND Myocardial revascularization surgery has used several vessels as coronary grafts including internal mammary and radial arteries which have a better prognosis than saphenous vein. Their long-term patency has been associated with the release of endothelium vasodilator and anti-aggregating products such as prostacyclin. Diabetes induces endothelial dysfunction and a high number of diabe...

Objective: To evaluate the changes in venous system during pregnancy and childbirth pregnant postpartum women without previous disease. Methods: This is an observational, analytical prospective cohort study carried out from May 2021 to October 2021, undergoing caesarean section on their first postoperative day, with duplex mapping being performed assess diameter reflux of great small saphenous ...

BACKGROUND The UK National Institute for Health and Care Excellence released new guidelines in 2013 recommending that endovenous thermal ablation (laser or radiofrequency) and ultrasound-guided foam sclerotherapy should be offered before conventional surgery for treat-ment of varicose veins and saphenous vein reflux. OBJECTIVE The aim of this article is to provide a synopsis of current intern...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy of surgical treatment of varicose veins with preservation of the great saphenous vein. METHODS We conducted a prospective study of 15 female patients between 25 and 55 years of age with clinical, etiologic, anatomic and pathophysiologic (CEAP) classification 2, 3 and 4. The patients underwent surgical treatment of primary varicose veins with great saphenous ...

Objective: Due to the potential of thrombus blockage and aneurysm rupture, saphenous veins with varicose are not advised for use as bypass grafts. However, if no other autologous vein is accessible a conduit in lower-limb bypass; transplants may be employed. Few reports have studied clinical results using We therefore investigated whether or acceptable patency rates graft could achieved.

OBJECTIVE We present a case of recurrent bilateral lower extremity venous stasis ulcers in association with a superficial venous aneurysm at the right saphenofemoral junction that was misdiagnosed on preoperative duplex scanning. METHODS A 53-year-old female presented to our clinic with 6-year history of bilateral lower extremity venous stasis ulcers. Her past medical history was significant ...
