Abstract
The ssGSV graft is superior to any other autologous vein graft in terms of midterm patency and leg salvage. It also needs less maintenance procedures than AAVGs. Non-ssGSV graft is independent predictor of both graft stenosis development and graft failure. Acceptable patency and leg salvage rates can also be achieved with AAVGs. However, patients with high operative risk and non-ssGSV graft bypass have poor outcome.
