The femora! arteries in 38 rabbits were transected and repaired with autogenous venous grafts with different diameters. The measurements of blood flow, patency rate and thrombosis rate, and scanning electron microscopic examination were made over a period of 14 days. The result showed that a venous graftl with a diameter 20 per cent less than that of the recipient artery was most satisfactory.
