resected/removed
Explanation:
I would not use "harvest" in this context. Tissue (vessels, bone, etc) is "harvested" for use as a graft.

"Hij is ook geïndiceerd voor patiënten bij wie endoscopische dissectie nodig is van het peritoneale en subcutane weefsel in de extremiteiten en in de borstholte. Ingrepen in de extremiteiten omvatten weefseldissectie/het preleveren van bloedvaten langs de vena saphena voor gebruik bij een CABG en een perifere arteriële bypass of arteria radialis voor gebruik bij een CABG."

"It is indicated for patients requiring endoscopic tissue separation of the extraperitoneal or subcutaneous extremity and thoracic space. Extremity procedures include tissue dissection/vessel harvesting along the saphenous vein for use in coronary artery bypass grafting and peripheral artery bypass or radial artery for use in coronary artery bypass grafting."

I think "harvesting" is correct and preferable within the context of sampling for evaluation (not just for grafts):

"Our data suggest that mandatory harvest of a minimum of 12 lymph nodes as a quality indicator or performance measure appears unfounded," the researchers wrote.

The status of lymph nodes near the cancer is one of the best means of determining prognosis and chances of survival in colorectal cancer, which is the third most common type of cancer and the third-leading cause of cancer-related death in the United States, according to background information in the study."

If it was "resected/removed" the authors could have chosen "verwijderd."

I am responding after the fact because I did not receive a notification of an additional answer to this question.
