Early angiographic results after revascularization by minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass (MIDCAB).
OBJECTIVE Anastomosing the left anterior descending artery (LAD) by use of the internal mammary artery (IMA) via an anterior minithoracotomy represents the most commonly performed minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass (MIDCAB). However, little is known about angiographic results beyond patency rates. METHODS Therefore, a retrospective analysis of 205 consecutive control angiographi...
متن کاملAngiographic results after minimally invasive coronary bypass grafting using the minimally invasive direct coronary bypass grafting (MIDCAB) approach.
OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to evaluate the early and mid-term angiographic results after minimally invasive coronary bypass grafting using an 'off-pump' technique via a lateral minithoracotomy. METHODS In 221 out of 271 patients (81.5%) who underwent minimally invasive direct coronary bypass grafting (MIDCAB) the quality of the internal thoracic artery (ITA)-graft and the anastomosis ...
متن کاملMinimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass versus stenting.
We readwith great interest the article by Boodhwani et al. [1] titled ‘Mortality and myocardial infarction following surgical versus percutaneous revascularization of isolated left anterior descending artery disease: a meta-analysis’. Randomized studies demonstrated a beneficial effect of surgery compared to percutaneous therapy on mid-term (1 month to 5 years) major adverse cardiac events (MAC...
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...
متن کاملMinimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass grafting: a systematic review.
AIM Recently minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass grafting (MIDCAB) has become an interesting alternative to conventional coronary artery bypass grafting, especially in patients with a high-grade left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) stenosis unsuitable for balloon angioplasty. Although MIDCAB offers several advantages such as the avoidance of sternotomy and cardiopulmonary...
