Elongation of right internal thoracic artery with radial artery for redo total arterial revascularization in patients with open left internal thoracic artery to left anterial descending artery graft.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Total arterial revascularization in patients with three-vessel disease cannot usually be achieved by bilateral internal thoracic artery grafts alone due to limited length. In this report we describe a technique by which the right internal thoracic artery can be elongated with radial artery for sequential grafting in redo total arterial revascularization procedure.

Comparison 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 ...

We performed redo-off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting( OPCAB) via a left thoracotomy using the PAS-Port system for proximal vein graft anastomoses in a patient with posterolateral myocardial ischemia. The patient was a 76-year-old man who had undergone coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG)[ left internal thoracic artery( LITA)-left anterior descending artery( LAD), saphenous vein graft(SV...
متن کاملExtension of the right internal thoracic artery with the radial artery in extensive re-do coronary artery bypass grafting
BACKGROUND Patients with extensive coronary artery disease often require re-do coronary artery bypass grafting. However, autologous bypass material is sometimes sparse. Since long term patency of arterial graft material is superior to venous bypass grafting, we developed a technique to perform re-do total arterial coronary artery bypass grafting extending the right internal thoracic artery (RIT...
متن کاملMinimally invasive coronary artery bypass grafting without cardiopulmonary bypass: early experience and follow-up.
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...
متن کاملMinimally invasive direct redo coronary artery bypass grafting.
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...
