Abstract
Abstract: Do autogenous vein grafts provide resistance to graft infection in MRSA (Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus) patients undergoing vascular surgery? This paper presents two MRSA patients, who underwent femoral popliteal bypass procedure with autogenous saphenous vein grafts. Despite prophylactic measures and all necessary care, both patients had graft infections and died as a result of MRSA septicaemia. Our conclusion is that autogenous vein grafts do not provide resistance to MRSA infection.
