Small calibre allografts, however preserved, and synthetic grafts, are uniformly doomed to failure. The great saphenous vein from the calf is usually a single tube, of suitable diameter and strength for arterial replacement. Most of its tributaries lie in the upper third of the calf; this makes the lower segment preferable for the patient who requires only one or two bypasses.

Overall early mortality was reduced from 9.7 percent during the first full year (1970) of the study to 3.3 percent during the last full year (1974). Early mortality in males (86.5 percent) was reduced to 3 percent during 1975, but in females only to 8.4 percent. However, late mortality in females was only 2.6 percent as compared to 3.4 percent in males. Long-term survival was similar for both males and females at five and one-half years when early mortality was considered. Males also experienced better symptomatic results than females with 90.3 percent of males remaining asymptomatic, while only 86.6 percent of females remained in this category. Early mortality increased as more vessels were bypassed, but late mortality decreased and symptomatic results improved as more complete revascularization was performed. Only 55 percent of late deaths were cardiac related. Actuarial comparison of this surgical series with the most comparable series in the literature of patients treated medically, demonstrated significant (P less than 0.001) increased survival in the surgical group as compared to medically treated patients at every year up to five and one-half years, for patients with double and triple vessel disease and for the entire series. In those patients with single vessel disease, the survival curves were similar to four years, following which survival was increased in the surgical patients at the end of the fifth and sixth reporting years. In summary, these data appear to suggest that surgical treatment of coronary artery occlusive disease does provide a favorable effect upon life expectancy.</p>","PeriodicalId":76789,"journal":{"name":"Vascular surgery","volume":"10 5","pages":"300-14"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1976-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/153857447601000507","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"12268108","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

If the number of operations done between 1940 and 1970 were compared to a dripping faucet, then the number done in 1975 would be a deluge. By far the most frequently performed procedure is anastomosis of saphenous vein grafts from the aorta to coronary arterial branches. Internal mammary to coronary anastomosis is preferred by some highly experienced surgeons in the field. In general, the reported patency rates have been in the 90% range which is higher than most authors claim with vein grafts. On the other hand, the mammary procedure is generally considered more difficult technically and some feel that vein grafts carry higher flow. As with any new procedure there are some points of general agreement, and many points of wide disagreement. Excellent and complete reviews of the literature on this subject have been recently published.’,’ The purpose of this communication is not to repeat these scholarly works, but instead to search through the clouds, fog, haze,and smoke in hopes of gaining a glimpse of light in an effort to understand the basis of some of the agreements and disagreements.
