Can we improve the results of venous grafts in CABG?

ABSTRACT: Saphenous Vein as a conduit in coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) has a high attrition rate. Yet because of free availability and technical ease of use, it accounts for 80% of all grafts in CABG. The reasons for its failure and the ways to improve its patency have been discussed in this video article with special emphasis on post harvest storage of the vein grafts.
