The lesser saphenous vein. An alternative graft for coronary revascularization

IK Crosby and JM Craver

In patients with surgically removed or varicose greater saphenous veins and atherosclerotic or small internal mammary arteries, or in patients requiring three or more coronary bypasses, the lesser saphenous vein can be considered for aortocoronary revascularization procedures. Its suitability can be demonstrated preoperatively by careful clinical examination and by venography. This report describes the successful use of the lesser saphenous vein in 3 patients, with long-term follow-up.
