Ruptured saphenous vein graft (SVG) aneurysm is a rare source of significant morbidity and mortality. SVG is a common technique of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), but vein graft aneurysm and ruptured SVG aneurysm have not received the required attention as only few case reports exist. We present the case of a 50-year old man with ruptured vein graft aneurysm who had significant postoperative complications following surgery, and outline some preventive/management strategies.
大隐静脉移植血管(SVG)动脉瘤破裂是导致严重发病和死亡的罕见原因。SVG是冠状动脉旁路移植术(CABG)的常用技术,但静脉移植血管动脉瘤和SVG动脉瘤破裂尚未得到应有的关注,因为仅有少数病例报告。我们报告一例50岁男性静脉移植血管动脉瘤破裂患者,其术后出现严重并发症,并概述了一些预防/处理策略。
