Evaluation of early coronary graft patency after coronary artery bypass graft surgery using multislice computed tomography angiography
BACKGROUND Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery is the standard of care in the treatment of advanced coronary artery disease, and its long-term results are affected by the failure of bypass grafts. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the early patency rate in coronary bypass grafts. METHODS A total of 107 consecutive patients who underwent CABG were included in this study. Ear...
متن کاملNon-invasive assessment of coronary artery bypass graft patency using 16-slice computed tomography angiography
BACKGROUND Invasive coronary angiography is the gold standard means of imaging bypass vessels and carries a small but potentially serious risk of local vascular complications, including myocardial infarction, stroke and death. We evaluated computed tomography as a non-invasive means of assessing graft patency. METHODS Fifty patients with previous coronary artery bypass surgery who were listed...
متن کاملImaging and evaluation of coronary artery bypass graft patency by 16-slice multidetector computed tomography.
INTRODUCTION The purpose of this study was to evaluate the patency of coronary artery bypass grafts (CABGs) while assessing the capabilities and limitations of 16-slice multidetector computed tomography. METHODS We studied retrospectively 19 patients (13 men, 6 women), over an 18-month period. All patients had undergone CABG surgery 3 months to 7 years earlier. Two patients were examined on a...
متن کاملIntraoperative assessment of coronary artery bypass graft patency.
The patency of the anastomosis and the flow of the graft are the most important subjects for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Graft patency verification is a high demanding procedure. The incidence of intraoperative graft failure has been estimated to be approximately 5% for internal mammary artery grafts and 11% for vein grafts.1-3 These disappointing findings exceedingly require intrao...
