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 کاملHybrid revascularization for multivessel coronary artery disease.
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to assess the feasibility of hybrid coronary revascularization (HCR) in patients with multivessel coronary artery disease (MVCAD) referred for standard coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). BACKGROUND Conventional CABG is still the treatment of choice in patients with MVCAD. However, the limitations of standard CABG and the unsatisfactory long-term paten...
متن کاملCoronary artery calcium (CAC) score – a prognostic tool in coronary artery disease?
Introduction: The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of measurement of coronary artery calcification score (CAC) in patients with suspected coronary artery disease (CAD) and a normal myocardial perfusion scan. Methods: In a prospective study we measured the calcium score of 74 patients (29 m, 45 f, mean age 58.7 (m) and 64.4 (f)) with suspicion of CAD and a normal perfusion scan. In ...
متن کاملRevascularization strategies in multivessel and left main coronary artery disease: SYNTAX and beyond.
D espite tremendous medical progress over the last 20 years in the fields of conservative, interventional and surgical treatment, the selection of therapy in stable coronary artery disease (CAD) remains a challenge. Specifically, the optimal revascularization mode in complex CAD has been a matter of continuous debate between cardiologists and cardiac surgeons.1 Recent studies have elucidated so...
متن کاملHybrid coronary revascularization for multivessel coronary artery disease.
Hybrid coronary revascularization intends to combine the durability and survival advantage of the left internal mammary artery to left anterior descending coronary artery graft by a minimally invasive surgical procedure and the interventional therapy for non-left anterior descending coronary artery vessels to achieve complete revascularization. It provides a feasible and attractive alternative ...
