Incorporation of Solcograft was studied experimentally and clinically. The graft was found to facilitate the formation of continuous endothelium which starts at the vessel graft boundary and from newly formed capillaries. Transmission and scanning microscopical investigations revealed neointima, neomedia and neoadventitia formation in 3--4 months. Complications such as obliteration were unfrequent. Aneurysm formation did not occur, the potency rate was satisfacory. Experience in 20 clinical cases are reported in detail. As to its usefulness in reconstructive vascular surgery, Solcograft is placed behind the saphenous graft. The graft is particularly suitable for patch plastics.
