Abstract

A technique is described for minimally invasive harvesting of the greater saphenous vein. This technique requires no new or disposable equipment, thus adding no additional cost to the procedure. It is rapid and reliable, and it can be performed in the majority of patients requiring greater saphenous vein for coronary artery bypass grafting.
