The Composite Aortic Wall Graft Technique: An Option for a Short Coronary Artery Bypass Graft
SUMMARY During coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery, the saphenous vein is sutured through its proximal segment to the aorta. Intimal hyperplasia is one of the possible causes of graft occlusion. Notably, blood turbulence can induce wall shear stress that may also play an important role in this process. OBJECTIVE We propose a new technique for performing proximal anastomosis to avoid C...
متن کاملUnexpected Radiation-Induced Aortic Wall Thickening Requiring Composite Graft Technique during Off-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting
Mediastinal radiation is commonly used to treat Hodgkin's and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, lung and breast cancer. Cardiac complications after radiation therapy are well described, although rare. A large spectrum of injuries can occur, causing long term morbidity among survivors. We describe a case of post-actinic ascending aortic wall thickening that prevented saphenous vein proximal anastomosis an...
