Fig. 1 Luminal surface of control (A) and endothelial cell—seeded graft (B) in same animal 6 weeks after implantation. Note thick, exuberant thrombus and absence of endothelium, beyond pannus ingrowth, on control graft, which nevertheless remained patent. By contrast note thin, glistening lining and absence of thrombus on seeded graft.

Fig. 2 Three-dimensional view of seeded graft seen with scanning electron microscope. Note intact endothelial lining on luminal surface (L) and substantial subendothelial layer (SE) attached to body of graft (G). (Original magnification × 190.)

Fig. 3 Transmission electron micrograph of luminal surface of seeded graft shows confluent endothelial cells with tight junctions and surface microvilli. Note also subendothelial smooth muscle cells and collagen fibrils. (Original magnification × 3900.)
