Coronary artery bypass grafting is the most commonly performed cardiac surgical
procedure. Conduit selection is crucial to achieving early optimal outcomes, with graft …

The long saphenous vein is the most used conduit in cardiac surgery, but its long-term
patency is limited by vein graft disease (VGD). Endothelial dysfunction is a key driver of …

The vasa vasorum (vessels of vessels) are a dynamic microvascular system uniquely
distributed to maintain physiological homeostasis of the artery wall by supplying nutrients …

Background: The saphenous vein (SV) is used as an essential conduit in coronary artery
bypass grafting (CABG), but the long-term patency of SV grafts is a crucial issue. The use of …

This short article discusses selected scanning electron microscope and transmission
electron microscope features of vasa vasorum including pericytes and basement membrane …

Background and Objectives: The saphenous vein is one of the most common used grafts
(SVG) for surgical revascularization. The mechanism of the SVGs occlusion is still unknown …

自体动静脉内瘘(autologous arteriovenous fistula, AVF) 构建过程中近吻合口静脉分离所造成
的滋养血管(vasa vasorum, VV) 损伤及AVF 手术后的血流动力学改变均可导致手术后早期近 …

Short-term preoperative methionine restriction (MetR) shows promise as a translatable
strategy to modulate the body its response to surgical injury. Its application, however, to …

Although saphenous vein grafts (SVGs) are used worldwide as bypass conduits, the long-
term graft patency of an SVG is unfavorable compared to that of arterial grafts. Therefore …
