Fig. 1 Top, length of arterotomy being measured by millimeter scale etched on one blade of Potts scissors. Scissor blade is proper length and angle for measurement, unlike standard ruler. Bottom, Potts scissor blade inserted into inflow end of vein graft an identical distance will create venotomy of same length as arterotomy.
