However, by means ofits higher patency rates even after a long period, as a result of pedicled harvesting technique and pharmacologicmanipulation, radial artery regained being a remarkable choice of arterial grafting. Here we aimed to present acase in which a patient had been used radial artery for replacing to another vascular bed and its anatomic andfl ow adaptation after bypass surgery. Also we aimed to highlight the fact of fl ow adaptation of a radial artery graftwhich could be misdiagnosed as a restenosis.
