Title: Experimental study of selected small caibre arterial grafts. Author: Geeraert AJ, Callaghan JC. Journal: J Cardiovasc Surg (Torino); 1977; 18(2):155-62. PubMed ID: 140172. Abstract: 1. The most ideal replacement for a small calibre artery segment is a similar sized autogenous arterial conduit. 2. Autogenous venous segments, although functional replacements for small calibre arteries, undergo structural changes which may prove detrimental to function. 3. At this stage of their development, fabric grafts cannot be considered as adequate replacements for small calibre arteries.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
