The anatomy of the saphenous nerve in the lower leg was studied in eighty patients undergoing saphenous vein aortocoronary bypass grafting. It is suggested that a knowledge of the described variations in the anatomical relationship of the saphenous nerve and vein should reduce the incidence of operative trauma to the saphenous nerve.
