Aortocoronary Saphenous Vein Graft Aneurysm: Diagnosis Using Color Doppler and Contrast Transesophageal Echocardiography

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

• SVG aneurysm may be diagnosed using TEE, color Doppler, and UEA. • An extracardiac mass after CABG raises suspicion of an SVG aneurysm. • Demonstration of flow by color Doppler or UEA aids in diagnosing SVG aneurysm. • SVG aneurysms are usually diagnosed ≥10 years after CABG (68%). • SVG aneurysms may cause extrinsic compression of adjacent structures (35%).
