Last updated 2021-09-22

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aim of this study is to investigate the histological and immunohistochemical findings of the saphenous vein graft, to rule out endothelial damage as a direct result of manipulation or instrumentation by endoscopic and open conventional harvesting methods. Furthermore, to investigate if there are any differences in the surgical site infection, cardiac event and functional status between the two harvest strategies at 1-year of follow-up.
