Experiences of minimally invasive great saphenous vein graft harvest using with endopath

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

We have experienced 20 cases of minimally invasive great saphenous vein graft harvest using with endoscopy, Endopath, from March 1999. As we experienced cases, we can harvest great saphenous vein graft, about 30-40 cm in size, from only two 4-cm incisions for about 50 minutes. There are no wound infection, pain, and edema. Great saphenous vein graft harvesting with Endopath is less invasive, painless after surgery and makes patients satisfied about cosmetic problem.
