Right-sided reverse T composite arterial grafting to complete revascularization of the right coronary artery
نویسندگان
چکیده
Complete arterial revascularization for the right coronary artery is underused mainly due to technical issues. Herein we report on a new approach for complete arterial revascularization of arterial revascularization for the right coronary artery branches. Complete arterial revascularization for the right coronary artery revascularization was performed in 8 patients using a reverse T composite arterial graft. None of the patients suffered perioperative myocardial infarction. All patients underwent noninvasive coronary imaging, displaying an early patency rate of 100%. Complete arterial arterial revascularization for the right coronary artery revascularization using a reverse T graft offers a new paradigm with enhanced technical flexibility in performing all arterial myocardial complete revascularizations in selected patients.

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 ...
متن کاملRevascularization of the right coronary artery in bilateral internal thoracic artery grafting.
BACKGROUND Bilateral internal thoracic artery (BITA) grafting with a composite T-graft enables right coronary artery (RCA) system revascularization with the distal end of the free right internal thoracic artery (RITA). This study compares this grafting technique to left-sided BITA grafting and RCA revascularization with the right gastroepiploic artery (RGEA) and saphenous vein grafts (SVG). M...
متن کاملArterial grafting and complete revascularization: challenge or compromise?
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Arterial grafting is superior to venous grafting in coronary artery bypass graft surgery with respect to graft patency and long-term patient outcome, but it may be difficult to achieve complete arterial revascularization. RECENT FINDINGS Use of arterial grafts, especially bilateral internal mammary artery grafts, is not common, whereas there are clear indications that it may...
متن کاملAdditional right-sided upper “Half-Mini-Thoracotomy” for aortocoronary bypass grafting during minimally invasive multivessel revascularization
BACKGROUND Although minimally invasive coronary artery bypass grafting (MICS-CABG) has been shown to result in excellent clinical outcomes overall adoption rates still remain low. Traditional strategies for minimally invasive multivessel revascularization - usually performed through single-thoracotomy - have to deal with restricted grafting possibilities and possible increased susceptibility of...
متن کاملComposite arterial grafting with double skeletonized internal thoracic arteries.
OBJECTIVES Composite arterial grafting is a surgical technique for arterial myocardial revascularization, in which free arterial conduits are proximally anastomosed end-to-side to an intact internal thoracic artery (ITA). This report describes technical aspects and results of composite grafting using bilateral skeletonized ITAs. METHODS From April 1996 to February 1999, 1057 patients underwen...
