Surgical tip: Keep in mind that if you are performing a vascular anastomosis using a PTFE graft but are not using PTFE suture—opting instead for polypropylene suture—you will inevitably encounter temporary bleeding at the needle-entry points. This occurs because the needle used with polypropylene suture is thicker, creating a micro-perforation in the PTFE graft; this results in temporary bleeding, which can be resolved by applying brief, manual compression with gauze! @SWexner @pferrada1 @juliomayol @BJSAcademy @CiruAndes2
