Abstract:
Interventions on vein graft occlusions are technically feasible procedures but carry significant risk for periprocedural complications and demonstrate questionable long-term patency. For those circumstances in which recanalization of a graft occlusion is warranted, the authors have highlighted some of the procedural considerations and available techniques that may help maximize chances for success. This should not be mistaken for a wholesale endorsement of vein graft chronic total occlusion interventions. Before undertaking a procedure of this complexity, the operator must put strong consideration into the risks, benefits, and alternatives for a given patient.
