Human blood vessel-derived endothelial progenitors for endothelialization of small diameter vascular prosthesis.

Human blood vessel-derived endothelial progenitors for endothelialization of small diameter vascular prosthesis.

BACKGROUND:Coronary bypass graft failure as a result of acute thrombosis and intimal hyperplasia has been the major challenge in surgical procedures involving small-diameter vascular prosthesis. Coating synthetic grafts with patients' own endothelial cells has been suggested to improve the pate...
