Total arterial myocardial revascularization: analysis of initial experience.
BACKGROUND Total arterial myocardial revascularization is an attempt to overcome the problems of late vein graft atherosclerosis, occlusion and need for coronary re-operations. Despite increasing evidence of efficacy, the use of arterial conduits has not been accepted as a primary practice in most of the centers in Pakistan for various reasons. We analyze our initial experience to assess the fe...
متن کاملRisk factors for mortality in octogenarians undergoing myocardial revascularization surgery.
BACKGROUND Age over 80 years, by itself, is not the only risk factor for mortality in coronary artery bypass grafting. OBJECTIVE To identify risk factors for mortality in octogenarian patients undergoing CABG. METHODS We studied 164 patients aged 80 years and over. The variables studied were: gender; age (in years); ejection fraction (LVEF); reoperation; emergency surgery; number of revascu...
متن کاملTotal arterial revascularization: A superior method of cardiac revascularization.
For over 40 years, the left internal thoracic artery has been used as the gold standard for myocardial revascularization and anastomosis over the left anterior descending artery due to its excellent patency rates. However, the right internal thoracic artery behaves in the same manner as the left, also having excellent long-term patency. Hence, no patient should be deprived of the benefits of to...
متن کاملTotal arterial revascularization in patients with acute myocardial infarction – feasibility and outcomes
BACKGROUND In acute situations such as acute myocardial infarction (AMI) with indication for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), total arterial revascularization (TAR) is often rejected in favour of saphenous vein (SV) grafting, which is assumed to allow for quicker vessel harvesting, a simpler anastomosis technique, and thus quicker revascularization and fewer bleeding complications. The a...
متن کاملImproved graft patency rates and mid-term outcome of diabetic patients undergoing total arterial myocardial revascularization
OBJECTIVES Diabetes negatively affects the outcome of patients undergoing percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) or coronary surgery. However, data are lacking with respect to the impact of arterial revascularization in the diabetic population. METHODS Between 1999 and 2003, 100 of 491 diabetics underwent coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) with total arterial grafting ...
