Summary

Frequently used treatment methods for great saphenous vein insufficiency e.g. endovenous or surgical therapy, result to a destruction or removal of the vein. There exist only several methods (e.g. ASVAL or CHIVA method or external valvuloplasty) which lead to a preservation of the great saphenous vein. In this case report we describe a patient who had a femoro-popliteal bypass surgery. The great saphenous vein of the contralateral leg, which was successfully treated by external valvuloplastiy 10 years ago, was uses as a homograft. Intraoperatively the vein did not show any pathological changes.
