Periadventitial rapamycin-eluting microbeads promote vein graft disease in long-term pig vein-into-artery interposition grafts.
BACKGROUND Neointima formation and atherosclerosis compromise long-term graft patency in aortocoronary and peripheral vein bypass grafts. We investigated the short- and long-term effects of periadventitial application of a sustained-release formulation of rapamycin on experimental pig vein grafts with similar dimensions and kinetics to human saphenous vein bypass grafts. METHODS AND RESULTS P...
متن کاملInterrupting gel layer between Double cuffs prevents fluid leakage past tracheal tube cuffs.
BACKGROUND Current tracheal tubes (TTs) cannot guarantee a perfect seal against pulmonary aspiration of upper airway secretions. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether a gel layer between the tracheal tube with double cuffs (Double cuffs) prevents fluid leakage past TT cuffs. METHODS In vitro fluid leakage tests were performed using the Double cuff with or without a gel layer be...
متن کاملSaphenous vein graft interposition following aggressive endarterectomy for right coronary artery: experience with 32 cases
Increasingly more diffuse and complex atherosclerotic lesions are encountered in coronary bypass surgery. Although coronary endarterectomy has been performed for a long time, it possesses risks of mortality and morbidity. For LAD techniques such as closure with saphenous patch and patch + anastomosis with LIMA are used following endarterectomy. In this case series, we aimed to present our exper...
متن کاملScalp Free Flap Reconstruction Using Anterolateral Thigh Flap Pedicle for Interposition Artery and Vein Grafts
We experienced satisfactory outcomes by synchronously transplanting an artery and vein using an anterolateral thigh flap pedicle between the vascular pedicle and recipient vessel of a flap for scalp reconstruction. A 45-year-old man developed a subdural hemorrhage due to a fall injury. In this patient, the right temporal cranium was missing and the patient had 4×3 cm and 6×5 cm scalp defects. W...
متن کاملAdenovirus-mediated gene transfer of soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule to porcine interposition vein grafts.
BACKGROUND The efficacy of aorto-coronary vein grafting is limited by early graft thrombosis and accelerated graft atherosclerosis. Direct adenovirus-mediated transfer of genes encoding inhibitory proteins may prevent or slow progression of vein graft disease. METHODS AND RESULTS Recombinant adenoviruses containing the cDNA for the marker gene lacZ (Ad.CMVlacZ) or soluble vascular cell adhesi...
