Abstract: Vascular graft infection is a devastating complication of vascular reconstructive surgery. The infection can occur early in the postoperative period and is largely due to intraoperative contamination or by contiguous extension from a nearby infection.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/ans.16218
Abstract: Primary mycotic aneurysms and prosthetic graft infections are traditionally managed by resection of infected vascular tissue and revascularisation with an extra‐anatomical bypass. Long‐term patency for this method has been reported to be poor with associated… read more here.
