Beta-adrenoceptor-mediated responsiveness of human internal mammary artery
The internal mammary artery (IMA) is currently the preferred conduit for myocardial revascularization. However, pre-operative vasospasm and a hypoperfusion state during maximal exercise may limit its use as a bypass graft. The mechanism of spasm has not been clearly defined. Since β-adrenoceptor activation plays a major role in vasorelaxation, the present study was carried out to investigate th...
متن کاملEffect of papaverine applications on blood flow of the internal mammary artery.
The aim of this prospective study was to compare the effect of different papaverine applications on the free blood flow in the internal mammary artery (IMA) prepared for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). The patients were divided into three groups: group I (n=50; intraluminal papaverine application), group II (n=50; topical papaverine application), and group III (n=50; periarterial papave...
متن کاملIdiopathic internal mammary artery aneurysm
Aneurysms of the internal mammary artery are extremely rare, and their presentation and treatment are variable. Since these aneurysms often tend to rupture and cause haemothorax and life-threatening conditions, the knowledge of secure treatment options is indispensable. We here report the case of an idiopathic internal mammary aneurysm in a 46-year-old man. Open surgical resection of the aneury...
متن کاملCoronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery with Double Internal Mammary Artery: Effect on Long-Term Survival
Background: Utilization of the left internal mammary artery (IMA) in coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) is associated with long-term survival free from late cardiac events; moreover, use of the right IMA as a complement of the left artery has shown favorable results. However, it is not yet clear whether double IMA revascularization is a better long-term option. Objective: The aim of th...
