Editorial Minimally - Invasive Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting
Coronary diseases/surgery; myocardial revascularization; surgical procedures minimally invasive. Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is the gold standard for the definitive treatment of coronary disease. With the advent of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty, cardiac surgery fell behind, especially for the treatment of oneand two-vessel coronary artery disease, which made surgeons leave th...

Redo coronary artery bypass grafting due to graft failure and the progression of new lesions has been increasing in frequency recently. We are often forced to revascularize only the left anterior descending artery (LAD) in very elderly patients with a high risk to median sternotomy. We performed reoperative minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass grafting (MIDCABG) in seven patients. T...
متن کاملMinimally-invasive video-assisted coronary-artery bypass grafting.
BACKGROUND In general, surgeries currently tend to be less invasive and cardiac surgery has started to follow this trend. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the evolution of one hundred patients undergoing minimally-invasive coronary artery bypass grafting. METHODS Access to the heart was attained through a small; 6-cm thoracotomy, located in the 4th left intercostal space, starting at the nipple. Throu...
متن کاملMinimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass grafting: a systematic review.
AIM Recently minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass grafting (MIDCAB) has become an interesting alternative to conventional coronary artery bypass grafting, especially in patients with a high-grade left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) stenosis unsuitable for balloon angioplasty. Although MIDCAB offers several advantages such as the avoidance of sternotomy and cardiopulmonary...
متن کاملReversible anastomotic stenosis after minimally invasive coronary artery bypass grafting.
artery bypass (MIDCAB) grafting can be associated a number of pitfalls and difficulties in assessing the patency of the anastomosis. These are illustrated in this paper. A patient underwent MIDCAB through an inferior hemisternotomy. A repeat angiogram obtained 4 days postoperatively showed an 80% stenosis at the anastomosis. Four months later, there was no residual stenosis. The cause of this c...
