Rapidly progressive coronary artery bypass graft atherosclerosis. Report of a case documented by serial coronary arteriograms and pathologic examination

JT Hanlon, B Massie, W Riches, J Wilson, RJ Ellis and EW Gertz

Atherosclerosis occurred in a coronary artery saphenous vein bypass graft. Serial angiograms are presented documenting subtotal occlusion of this graft which occurred over a nine-month period. Pathologic examination of graft material obtained at surgery demonstrated ulcerating atherosclerotic plaque. The occurrence of early saphenous vein graft atherosclerosis is discussed with particular reference to the possible effects of hyperlipidemia, which was present in this patient.
