The role of vein grafts in peripheral vascular disease and carotid artery disease

Abstract: Die Rolle von autologen Venegrafts in derChirurgie der peripheren Verschlußkrankheit und der Karotisstenose Zusammenfassung. Grundlagen: Die periphere Bypasschirurgie hat sich zu einer weit verbreiteten und erfolgreichen Behandlungsform fü r Patienten mit peripherer arterieller Verschlußkrankheit entwickelt.Methodik: Review der Fachliteratur. Ergebnisse: Obwohl Kunststoffprothesen als BypassGrafts stä ndig weiterentwickelt und verbessert werden, sind Venenbypass-Grafts nach wie vor unü bertroffen in Bezug auf … Show more

“…Despite advances in the field of venous allografts and vascular xenografts, venous autografts are at present undoubtedly superior [1]. Intimal hyperplasia is the first significant pathophysiological change in arterialized veins and it is thought to ease the consecutive process of vein graft atherosclerosis that leads to stenosis and graft occlusion [2][3][4].…”

“…Furthermore, lumbar disc implants [12] are used to treat degenerative lumbar disc diseases; prosthetic arthroplasty is performed to replace hip [13] and knee [14] joints, and acetabular implants [15] are used to repair hip or acetabular fractures. As is the case with other organs, the cardiovascular system is vulnerable to specific conditions, such as peripheral artery disease [16] or cerebrovascular disease [17], which reduce blood circulation in various areas of the body and can be treated with stents, heart valves, and vascular grafts [18]. Ceramic-and metal-based coatings are commonly applied to implants for various purposes, such as improving biocompatibility [19], imparting antimicrobial properties [20], reducing friction [21], and creating resistance to corrosion [22].…”
