Tóm tắt

The saphenous vein is the most commonly used conduit for coronary artery bypass grafting. Arterial grafts are harvested with the outer pedicle intact whereas saphenous veins are harvested with the pedicle removed in the conventional graft harvesting technique. This conventional procedure causes considerable vascular damage. One strategy to improve vein graft patency has been to provide external support. Ongoing studies show that fitting a metal external support improves conventionally harvested saphenous vein graft patency. On the other hand, the no-touch technique of harvesting the saphenous vein provides an improved graft with long-term patency comparable to that of the internal mammary artery. This improvement is suggested to be due to preservation of vessel structures. Interestingly, many of the mechanisms proposed to be associated with the beneficial actions of an artificial external support on saphenous vein graft patency are similar to those underlying the beneficial effect of no-touch saphenous vein grafts where the intact outer layer acts as a natural support. Additional actions of external supports have been advocated, including promotion of angiogenesis, increased production of vascular-protective factors, and protection of endothelial cells. Using no-touch harvesting, normal vascular architecture is maintained, tissue and cell damage is minimized, and factors beneficial for graft patency are preserved. In this review, the significance of external support of saphenous vein grafts in coronary artery bypass grafting is discussed.
