Abstract
Nowadays endovascular treatment of pathologies of the superficial femoral artery is widely used and often the treatment of first choice. In patients with long-segment artery occlusions, bypass surgery can still be necessary. If so, the decision for adequate bypass material needs to be made. This manuscript summarises the available evidence on autogenous vein bypasses above the knee and presents a clear pro for venous grafts in the suprapopliteal segment.
