[Destruction of the valve of the great saphenous vein in the technique of femoro-popliteal bypass in situ (author's transl)].
Destruction of the valves of the great saphenous vein is one of the essential steps in femoro-popliteal bypass in situ. The authors suggest the use of bougies with a tip in the form a shell, the base of which is adorned with 4 rounded and smoothed teeth. After destruction of the great saphenous and ligation of the collaterals, arterial filling of the vein after superior anastomosis and the retrograde insertion of strippers may be used the collapse the valves opened by the blood flow. Amongst 40 bypasses performed using this technique, 38 were without problem.
