Skeletonized bilateral internal mammary artery grafting for patients with diabetes.
To minimize sternal ischemia, skeletonized internal mammary artery (IMA) harvesting has been performed in the last few years. The benefits of skeletonization in high risk patients, such as diabetic patients undergoing bilateral IMA grafting, are unknown. A total of 99 patients underwent isolated coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) using a pedicled bilateral IMA between 6/1/1997 and 5/31/2000...
متن کاملBilateral internal mammary artery grafting: are BIMA better?
The clinical and prognostic benefits of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) are well accepted for certain subgroups of patients with ischaemic heart disease, and as many as one million patients undergo this operation annually on a worldwide basis. Most CABG patients require grafting of the three main native coronary arteries; for the last 15 years the “standard” operation has achieved this u...
متن کاملDoes off-pump bilateral internal thoracic artery grafting increase operative risk in dialysis patients?
BACKGROUND We compared short-term outcomes of patients with chronic dialysis receiving bilateral internal thoracic artery (BITA) grafting with single internal thoracic artery (SITA) grafting using propensity score analysis. METHODS Between 2002 and 2008, 656 consecutive patients underwent isolated coronary artery bypass grafting (99.1% off-pump). Of these, 56 patients with chronic dialysis an...
متن کاملRisk factors for sternal wound infection and mid-term survival following coronary artery bypass surgery.
OBJECTIVE To identify risk factors for sternal wound infection following coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG), and to compare early and mid-term survival outcome. METHODS Data were prospectively collected for 4228 patients who underwent CABG surgery between April 1997 and March 2001. One hundred and nine (2.6%) patients developed sternal wound infection. We used logistic regression to identi...
متن کاملBenefit of bilateral over single internal mammary artery grafts for multiple coronary artery bypass grafting.
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of bilateral internal mammary artery (BIMA) grafts in isolated CABG. METHODS AND RESULTS Beginning in April 1985, elective primary multiple CABG for multivessel disease was performed in 1131 patients. The early and late results of 688 patients who received single internal mammary artery (SIMA) grafts and 443 patients who receive...
