  • Title: Aneurysm of a saphenous vein bypass graft associated with aneurysms of native coronary arteries.
    Author: Bramlet DA, Behar VS, Ideker RE.
    Journal: Cathet Cardiovasc Diagn; 1982; 8(5):489-94. PubMed ID: 6982756.
    Abstract:
    Aneurysm formation in saphenous vein aortocoronary bypass grafts is an extremely rare complication of coronary artery bypass surgery. Aneurysms of native coronary arteries are found in a small percentage of patients at autopsy. Reported is a case with multiple coronary artery aneurysms in which a dissecting aneurysm of the saphenous vein bypass graft also developed following coronary artery bypass surgery. This is the first report of such association.
