ABSTRACT:
A method for implanting an end portion of a graft within the body of a patient during a bypass grafting procedure includes the steps of (1) making an arteriotomy in a sidewall of a blood vessel at a first area to create a communicating aperture between a first location inside of the blood vessel and a second location outside of the blood vessel, wherein the arteriotomy making step is performed while the first area is covered by a substantially intact portion of the epidermis of the body, (2) advancing the end portion of the graft to the first area, wherein the advancing step is performed while the first area is covered by the substantially intact portion of the epidermis of the body, and (3) forming an anastomosis between the end portion of the graft and the blood vessel at the first area, wherein the anastomosis forming step is performed while the first area is covered by the substantially intact portion of the epidermis of the body.
