Encasement of the Left Internal Mammary Arterial Graft to the Left Coronary Artery by Adenosquamous Carcinoma, an Unusual Tumor
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report a case of a patient with a previous coronary artery bypass graft who presented with chest pain and was found to have adenosquamous carcinoma encasing the left internal mammary graft to left anterior descending artery – the only viable vessel to his coronary circulation. Adenosquamous carcinoma, a rare lung cancer with a poor prognosis, causing obstruction of a bypass graft has not been previously reported.

Among the present classes of calcium channel blockers, dihydropyridine derivatives are widely used in the therapy of hypertension, angina pectoris and the other cardiovascular diseases. Since the prototype of dihydropyridine derivatives, nifedipine, does not have the optimum pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic characteristics, several attempts have been made to synthesize other drugs in this ...
متن کاملProtocol for the Arterial Revascularisation Trial (ART). A randomised trial to compare survival following bilateral versus single internal mammary grafting in coronary revascularisation [ISRCTN46552265]
BACKGROUND Standard coronary artery bypass graft surgery uses a single internal mammary artery and supplemental vein or radial artery grafts. Several observational studies have suggested a survival benefit with two internal mammary artery grafts compared to a single internal mammary artery graft, but this has not been tested in a randomised trial. The Arterial Revascularisation Trial is a Medic...

BACKGROUND Use of the left internal mammary artery (LIMA) in multivessel coronary artery disease improves survival after coronary artery bypass graft surgery; however, the survival benefit of multiple arterial (MultArt) grafts is debated. METHODS AND RESULTS We reviewed 8622 Mayo Clinic patients who had isolated primary coronary artery bypass graft surgery for multivessel coronary artery dise...

In recent years off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery (OPCAB) has emerged as preferred method for revascularization of coronary arteries in relatively selected group of patients. Considering patients receiving incomplete revascularization need significantly higher postoperative catheterization and re-intervention (PTCA or CABG), we performed this study to identify safety and feasibility of th...
