Total Arterial Revascularization in Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting Surgery
Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) operations are one of the most commonly performed sur‐ gical procedures, with a worldwide prevalence of over 800,000 annually and more than 350,000 operations being performed in the United States each year [1]. The use of the left internal mam‐ mary artery (LIMA) is widely considered to be the gold standard for conventional CABG opera‐ tions. Its use has been...
متن کاملHypoalbuminemia as a Predictor for Complications Following Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting
Background and purpose: There is little information about the prognostic role of preoperative serum albumin levels in postoperative outcomes following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). The aim of this study was to evaluate preoperative hypoalbuminemia as a predictor for complications after CABG. Materials and methods: This prospective observational study was conducted in 200 patients und...
متن کاملA multipurpose arterial graft holder for coronary artery bypass grafting.
A multipurpose arterial graft holder designed for use during coronary artery bypass grafting is described. This new holder is atraumatic and holds the arterial grafts and saphenous vein graft securely during anastomosis. The use of this instrument facilitates the use of multiple arterial grafts for coronary artery bypass grafting.
متن کاملComparison of the right internal thoracic artery and radial artery as a second arterial conduit in ‘Y’ composite fashion in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting using total arterial revascularization
Introduction: The use of two arterial conduits for CABG is rapidly increasing. The second arterial conduit to LITA is usually RITA or radial artery. We sought to compare outcomes when either RITA or radial artery is exclusively used as a Y composite graft to LITA for total arterial revascularization. Material and methods: We retrospectively analyzed 231 ...
متن کاملThe effect of total arterial grafting on medium-term outcomes following coronary artery bypass grafting
BACKGROUND While it is believed that total arterial grafting (TAG) for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) confers improved long-term outcomes when compared to conventional grafting with left internal mammary artery and saphenous vein grafts (LIMA+SVG), to date, this has not become the standard of care. In this study, we assessed the impact of TAG on medium-term outcomes after CABG. METHOD...
