Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Arterial anastomosis refers to the surgical joining of two arteries, while a bypass graft involves using a vein or synthetic material to create a new pathway around a blocked artery. Endarterectomy involves removing plaque from the inner lining of an artery, and an arterial stent involves placing a small wire mesh to hold open a narrowed or blocked artery, but neither are used to join two arteries together.
