Refractory Coronary Artery Spasm after Minimally Invasive Direct Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting
نویسندگان
چکیده
Postoperative coronary arterial spasm is a rare but potentially fatal complication. A 51-year-old male patient with a history of a reactive ergonovine stress test coronary angiogram developed refractory coronary artery spasm after undergoing minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass grafting of the left anterior descending coronary artery. The patient was successfully managed with rapid implementation of intra-aortic balloon-pump counter pulsation and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.

Concurrent lung cancer and coronary artery disease requiring treatment with percutaneous coronary intervention or coronary artery bypass grafting is not rare. An individualized perioperative anticoagulation regimen and minimal surgical trauma will benefit the patient's postoperative recovery. We successfully treated a 68-year-old female patient with a lesion in the left anterior descending arte...

BACKGROUND There is renewed interest in coronary artery bypass grafting without cardiopulmonary bypass using the anterolateral minithoracotomy approach. We evaluated 209 patients who underwent minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass grafting using an anterolateral minithoracotomy. The anastomosis was performed under direct vision on the beating heart without using cardiopulmonary bypas...

Introduction: Minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass grafting (MIDCAB) offers arterial revascularization of the left anterior descending coronary artery especially in lesions unsuitable for percutaneous coronary interventions. By avoidance of sternotomy and cardiopulmonary bypass its invasivity is less than that of conventional bypass surgery. Methods: A literature search of all publi...

This article describes coronary artery bypass grafting by Avlliath Jay akrishnan et al. one of the most common reason for coronary artery bypass grafting is narrowing coronary arteries because of atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis causes chest pain (angina pectoris), myocardial infarction and sudden death. The aim of coronary artery bypass grafting is to release pain, prevention of myocardial i...

Redo coronary artery bypass grafting due to graft failure and the progression of new lesions has been increasing in frequency recently. We are often forced to revascularize only the left anterior descending artery (LAD) in very elderly patients with a high risk to median sternotomy. We performed reoperative minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass grafting (MIDCABG) in seven patients. T...
