Brief Summary:
The aim of the thesis is to compare a group of patients using vein grafts with and without external support specifically their patency This is a prospective study with a follow-up plan of 150 patients in whom the functionality of the grafts will be monitored at time intervals
Detailed Description:
One of the most frequently used strategies to restore blood flow in affected coronary arteries in atherosclerotic disease is coronary bypass or bridging of a narrowed or closed artery and revascularization of the ischemic area of the heart For coronary artery bypass grafting CABG the great saphenous vein VSM remains the most commonly used graft although the longevity of the vein graft is an important limiting factor in monitoring long-term results of CABG Long-term follow-up found that 25 of vein grafts close within 1 year of surgery and up to 75 of vein grafts close 10 years after surgery
External support minimizes pathophysiological processes in the graft For example intimal hyperplasia kinking graft dilatation or graft suppression and generally improving the hemodynamic flow through the graft should also reduce the formation of thrombus In this study we follow up the patency and function of vein grafts over a period of 4 years and compare the resulting data with already available data from other researches
