Fig 1 Biodegradable poly-ε-caprolactone (PCL) vascular graft. Graft characteristics: inner diameter, 4 mm; length, 80 mm; wall thickness, 500 μm; mean fiber diameter of 2.2 ± 0.6 μm; porosity, 80%; maximum tensile stress of 4.8 MPa, and maximum tensile strain of 600%.

Fig 2 Implantation of poly-ε-caprolactone (PCL) prosthesis. A, Native porcine common carotid artery after surgical preparation (note vagus nerve indicated by the arrow). B, Native common carotid artery is cross-clamped proximally as well as distally and divided. The graft is beveled at the proximal end before construction of the end-to-end anastomosis. The distal part will be beveled just before performing the anastomosis. C, PCL graft is implanted in carotid position with the use of interrupted nonresorbable polyprolpylene 7-0 sutures. *Proximal side.

A and B, CD31 immunostaining shows endoluminal endothelial coverage (arrow) that was more complete in PCL (A) grafts than in ePTFE (B) implants (magnification, 400×). C and D, Neointimal hyperplasia (arrows) was present in both types of implants (magnification, 200×). E and F, Multiple microthrombi (arrow) were present in both PCL and ePTFE vascular grafts (magnification, 20×).
