Detailed explanation-1: -Your doctor may use a vein, called the saphenous vein, from your leg. To reach this vein, a surgical cut will be made along the inside of your leg, between your ankle and groin. One end of the graft will be sewn to your coronary artery. The other end will be sewn to an opening made in your aorta.
Detailed explanation-2: -To create the bypass graft, surgeons remove or “harvest” healthy blood vessels from another part of the body, often the leg or the arm. This vessel becomes a graft, with one end attaching to a blood source above and the other end below the blocked area, creating a new blood flow connection.
Detailed explanation-3: -The saphenous vein is the most commonly used conduit for coronary artery bypass grafting.
