Abstract
If God created the saphenous vein for the sake of vascular surgeons, He neglected to create all men equal in respect to the presence of saphenous veins for needed revascularizations. Therefore, the burden of finding alternatives to saphenous veins reverts to the humble ingenuity of man.This publication has 27 references indexed in Scilit:
