Abstract: BACKGROUND In selected populations, carotid endarterectomy (CEA) reduces long-term stroke risk. Studies have shown increased risk of restenosis with use of a collagen-impregnated Dacron patch compared to a polytetrafluorethylene patch. There is concern that collagen… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s1047951121001293
Abstract: Conduit stenosis is a major, albeit rare, complication following the Fontan palliation. A single-baffle conduit with polytetrafluoroethylene is widely used for an extracardiac type Fontan palliation. A polyethylene terephthalate conduit (Dacron) is sometimes used for… read more here.
