A narrative review of vascular conduits for coronary artery bypass grafting

Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) involves creating new conduits to restore blood flow to the heart. Using autologous vascular grafts presents challenges, including infection risk after vein harvesting, and scarcity of viable vein tissue. Researchers are exploring tissue-engineered vascular gra...

Descrição
Resumo:Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) involves creating new conduits to restore blood flow to the heart. Using autologous vascular grafts presents challenges, including infection risk after vein harvesting, and scarcity of viable vein tissue. Researchers are exploring tissue-engineered vascular grafts (TEVGs), aiming to create optimal small-diameter vascular graft (SDVG).
