Sažetak
To the Editor: With great interest we have read a recent meta-analysis from Cao and colleagues on patency outcomes comparing the radial artery (RA) and saphenous vein (SV) after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. The extracted data suggest superiority of the RA compared with the SV at midterm angiographic follow-up, while considering the increased incidence of string sign associated with the RA as a potential clinical concern. We wish to point out a major issue that needs to be taken into consideration when comparing RA and SV patency rates.
