Photochemical Tissue Passivation Reduces Vein Graft Intimal Hyperplasia in a Swine Model of Arteriovenous Bypass Grafting
BackgroundBypass grafting remains the standard of care for coronary artery disease and severe lower extremity ischemia. Efficacy is limited by poor long‐term venous graft patency secondary to intimal hyperplasia (IH) caused by venous injury upon exposure to arterial pressure. We investigate whether...
