Stenting of Saphenous Vein Grafts ‚Äî A Treacherous Road to Travel

05/26/2011

Following the first successful clinical aorto-coronary saphenous vein graft (SVG) implantation by DeBakey and Garrett in 1964,1 coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) rapidly became the most frequent surgical procedure in the United States in...
