Durability of Carotid Endarterectomy with Bovine Pericardial Patch
2018, Annals of Vascular SurgeryCitation Excerpt :Patch angioplasty using great saphenous vein has theoretical benefits of an autogenous tissue, favorable handling characteristics, and resistance to infection. However, using it can compromise a valuable conduit for bypass procedures, increase operative time, result in possible wound complications at the harvest site, and saphenous vein patch “blowouts” have been reported.5–9 Synthetic materials provide instant availability but carry an increased risk of infection.

2009, Journal of Vascular SurgeryCitation Excerpt :This preference to avoid proximal saphenous vein harvest led to use of the distal saphenous vein at the ankle or the cervical veins harvested within the CEA incision. There was concern that these veins were weaker and could potentially lead to a catastrophic blowout.44-48 Some authors have shown that veins >3.5 mm diameter are generally safe to use with reduced risk of rupture.49,50
