Lack of endothelialization and abnormal smooth muscle cell (SMC) growth adversely affect the outcome of vascular synthetic grafts. The aims of our study were to investigate how a coating of extracellular matrix (ECM) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) might affect the endothelialization rate, smooth muscle cells (SMC) proliferation, and myointimal hyperplasia in experimental arterial ePTFE grafts.
