Revascularization of left main coronary artery disease.
Coronary artery disease with left main stenosis is associated with the highest mortality of any coronary lesion. Studies in the 1970s and 1980s comparing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and medical therapy showed a significant survival benefit with revascularization. In the angioplasty era, initial experience with percutaneous intervention was associated with poor clinical outcomes. As a...
متن کاملCan patients with left main coronary artery disease wait for myocardial revascularization surgery?
OBJECTIVE To assess the occurrence of cardiac events in patients diagnosed with left main coronary artery disease on diagnostic cardiac catheterization and waiting for myocardial revascularization surgery. METHODS All patients diagnosed with left main coronary artery disease (stenosis > or = 50%) consecutively identified on diagnostic cardiac catheterization during an 8-month period were sele...
متن کاملMidterm outcomes of simultaneous hybrid coronary artery revascularization for left main coronary artery disease.
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility, safety, and midterm outcomes of a simultaneous hybrid revascularization strategy for left main coronary artery disease (LMCAD), compared with conventional off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB). METHODS We compared the in-hospital and midterm outcomes of a simultaneous hybrid revascularization strategy (minimally ...
متن کامل[Left main coronary artery disease].
There are many causes of left main coronary artery disease, the first of which is atherosclerosis. Other rarer causes may be observed, such as acute and chronic occlusions, spasm and primary and secondary dissection. The prevalence of stenosis of the left main coronary artery at coronary angiography is about 5%. The risk factors are the same as for coronary artery disease. The symptoms are angi...
متن کاملTreatment of Left Main Coronary Artery Disease.
When coronary arteriography was developed in the early 1960s, the very high risk associated with obstructive left main coronary artery disease became evident; this risk was related to the large volume of myocardium supplied by this vessel. Among patients receiving the medical therapy available at the time, the 5-year mortality approached 60%, and the survivors usually had severe symptoms, inclu...
