Microvascular reconstruction, in the oral and maxillofacial regions, is a widely accepted as the best way to overcome the complex oral cavity defects. Many patients requiring composite reconstructions have been treated previously with radiation therapy, chemotherapy, selective and/or functional neck dissection or any of these combinations. In many cases of these patients, inadequate neck vessels for the microanastomosis of free flap are available, due to a lack of recipient vessels in the neck, poor vessel quality or vessel caliber mismatch. To achieve a tension-free anastomosis, vein grafting must be considered to span the vessel gap between the free flap pedicle and the recipient neck vessels. Although most microsurgeons believed that interpositional grafts are to be avoided due to vessel thrombosis and increased number of necessary microanastomosis, we, authors have some confidence of equivalency between reconstruction with and without interpositional saphenous vein graft. The great saphenous vein, also known as the long saphenous vein, is the large subcutaneous superficial vein of the leg and thigh. It joins with the femoral vein in the region of femoral triangle at the saphenofemoral junction, and coursed medially to lie on the anterior surface of the thigh before entering an opening in the fascia lata, called the saphenous opening. For a better understanding of the great saphenous vein graft for the interpositional vessel graft in the oral cavity reconstructions, and an avoidance of any uneventful complications during these procedures, the related surgical anatomies with their harvesting tips are summarized in this review article in the Korean language.

The Saphenous vein is still the graft of choice for bypass of small calibered peripheral arteries, and many recent studies revealed that the "In Situ" technique had higher rate of long term patency than the conventional "reversed" one. A 71-year-old male who had atherosclerotic obstruction in the superficial femoral and popliteal trifurcation underwent In Situ saphenous vein arterial bypass. The saphenous vein is exposed by a long medial skin incision over the course of the vein. All branches of vein are ligated. A olive-tipped metal needle is introduced into the vein from above and everts the valves. The patient has been followed for 2 months after operation. The graft remained pulsatile and the gangrenous areas on the toe proceeded to heal. We think In situ vein bypass offers an excellent and safe method of revascularization of the arterial occlusion below the knee although it is technically demanding and the time consuming. time consuming.

Objectives: To completely excise a malignant tumor which invades carotid artery walls, the resection and reconstruction of the carotid artery is essentially required. In most of the cases, interposition graft using a saphenous vein has been performed, however the vessel caliber discrepancy between a common carotid artery and the saphenous vein can result in a problem on surgical technique. We have introduced and evaluated a new titanium hemoclip tailing method to overcome vessel caliber discrepancy in interposition saphenous vein graft for carotid artery resection in the treatment of head and neck cancers. Method: After carotid artery resection, the calibers of the proximal common carotid artery and the vein were compared, and an orifice of the common carotid artery was gradually reduced to a little larger than or the same size as the orifice of the vein by using the titanium hemostatic clip. Subsequently, the common carotid artery was connected to the vein through anastomosis. The same method was also applied to the distal anastomosis site. There after, the vessels were connected through the anastomosis, and a circulation was restored by releasing a vascular clamp. Then, a titanium hemostatic clip-applied redundant portion on the outside of carotid artery was sutured by the blanket edge suture method, using 6-0 Prolene. Results: We have experienced this method in two patients with recurrent squamous cell carcinoma and neuroblostoma, respectively. The interposition saphenous vein graft of these patients was found to maintain good patency on the follow up angiography after one year, and they had no specific vascular complication, such as atherosclerosis. Conclusion: This method made it possible to simply perform the interposition saphenous vein graft (ISVG) within a short time and, therefore, was very useful for shortening the duration to block circulation.

Between July, 1987, and September, 1988, 6 patients with coronary occlusive disease received coronary artery bypass surgery at Kyungpook University Hospital. There were five males and one female whose age ranged from 39 to 64 years[mean 54*8.0 years]. Of the 6 patients, 5 suffered from unstable angina, 1 suffered from stable angina. Selective coronary angiography revealed a significant stenosis of the left anterior descending artery in 6 cases, of its diagonal branch in 1 case, of the right coronary artery in 1 case, the circumflex artery in 1 case, and of its obtuse marginal branch in 1 case. The mode of anastomosis were single saphenous vein graft in 3 cases, single left internal mammary artery graft in 1 case, double saphenous vein graft with sequential anastomosis in 1 case, and left internal mammary artery plus saphenous vein graft in 1 case. Of these, 6 grafts to left anterior descending artery were done. There was no operative death, but perioperative myocardial infarction was happened in 1 case. All survivors were free of angina and discontinuing medical therapy during the follow up period[mean 7.8*5.15 months].

배경: 관상동맥우회술에서 흔히 사용되는 복재정맥 도관을 상행대동맥에 문합하여 사용한 경우의 개통률은 유경 내흉동맥 도관에 비해 낮은 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 심폐바이패스를 사용하지 않는 관상동맥우회술에서 복재정맥을 좌내흉동맥에 연결하여 복합도관으로 사용하였을 때의 조기 임상 결과 및 문합부 개통률을 동맥도관을 복합도관으로 사용한 경우와 비교하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 2006년 9월부터 2008년 10월 사이에 심폐바이패스를 사용하지 않는 관상동맥우회술을 받은 419명의 환자 중에서 좌내흉동맥을 유경이식편으로 하여 복합도관을 조성했던 295명(70.4%)을 대상으로, 복합도관의 조성에 복재정맥을 사용했던 군(I군, n=71)과 동맥도관 만을 사용했던 군(II군, n=224)으로 나누어 임상결과를 비교하였다. 모든 환자에서 수술 후 초기($1.6{\pm}1.6$일)에 관상동맥조영술을 시행하여 문합부 개통률을 분석하였다. 결과: 원위부 문합수는 I군이 $3.5{\pm}1.0$개, II군이 $3.1{\pm}0.8$개였다(p=.002). 수술관련 사망률은 0.7% (2/295)였으며, 수술 후 합병증으로 심방세동(n=73, 24.7%), 수술 전후 심근경색(n=6, 2.0%), 급성신부전(n=6, 2.0%), 출혈로 인한 재수술(n=5, 1.7%), 뇌졸중(n=3, 1.0%), 종격동염(n=1, 0.3%)등이 있었으며, 복재정맥의 사용 여부와는 무관하였다. 술 후 관상동맥조영술에서 I군의 복재정맥 개통률은 96.9% (126/130)였으며, II군의 복합 동맥도관 개통률은98.8% (479/485)였다(p=.231). 결론: 내흉동맥을 유경 이식편으로 하는 복합도관을 이용하여 심폐바이패스를 사용하지 않는 관상동맥우회 술에서, 복재정맥을 복합도관으로 사용하였을 경우 조기 임상 성적 및 문합부 개통률은 동맥도관과 유사하여, 동맥도관 부족 시 복합도관으로서 복재정맥의 사용 가능성을 제시하였으며, 향후 장기 추적관찰 연구가 필요하다.

배경: 관상동맥에 내흉동맥편과 복재정맥편을 동시에 문합할 때 두 이식편 사이에 생기는 혈압과 혈류의 차이 때문에 내경이 작은 내흉동맥편의 개존이 나빠질 수 있다. 이런 수술을 받은 환자에서 중단기적 임상 결과를 보고 특히 상경적인 혈류의 영향을 많이 받는 내흉동맥편의 개존 상태를 알고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 좌전하행지에 문합된 내흉동맥의 혈류가 충분하지 못하다고 판단된 14예의 환자에서 같은 관상동맥에 좌내흉동맥편과 복재정맥편을 동시에 문합하였다. 평균 33.5개월의 추적기간동안 증상이 재발한 경우, 좌내 흉동맥편의 혈류를 확인하고자 하는 경우, 수술 직후에 Q파를 보인 경우 등 6예에서 관상동맥 조영술을 시 행하였다. 결과: 복재정맥편과 내흉동맥편은 모두 개존되어 있었으며, 2예에서는 양측 균등한 혈류를 보인 반면, 다른 2예에서는 상경적인 혈류를 보였고 나머지 2예에서는 내흉동맥편이 개존되어 있었으나 관상동맥 으로 가는 혈류는 거의 없었다. 결론: 좌내흉동맥편을 좌전하행지에 문합하는 수술에서 복재정맥편을 부가 적으로 좌전하행지에 문합하는 경우에 수술 후 좌전하행지의 혈류를 충분히 유지할 수 있으며, 이러한 이중 문합이 내흉동맥편의 중단기적 개존에 영향을 미치지는 않을 것으로 생각된다.

Management of postoperative tarsal tunnel syndrome is a perplexing problem to the surgeons. Autogenous vein wrapping graft is a effective method to decompress the tarsal tunnel. We treated 2 cases of postoperative tarsal tunnel syndrome with autogenous saphenous vein wrapping graft technique, and could get good results. Autogenous vein wrapping graft seems to be a good technique for tarsal tunnel syndrome with severe adhesion, particularly after surgery, and postoperative nerve adhesion can be prevented.
