Coronary vein graft disease: pathogenesis and prevention.
Not long after coronary artery bypass grafting surgery was described, several reports presented follow-up angiographic data on large cohorts of patients, demonstrating that approximately one-half of saphenous vein grafts fail within 10 to 15 years of surgery and that graft failure is associated with worse clinical outcomes. Three processes are responsible for vein graft failure. Thrombosis, int...
متن کاملTreatment of Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Failure
The concept of surgical revascularization for coronary artery disease (CAD) originated in the early 20th century. A pioneer in this field is Beck, a surgeon who in 1935 developed an indirect technique of myocardial revascularization by grafting a flap of the pectoralis muscle over the exposed epicardium to create new blood supply. [1] Later, Beck also developed another revascularization techniq...
متن کاملManagement and Prevention of Saphenous Vein Graft Failure: A Review
Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) remains a vital treatment for patients with multivessel coronary artery disease (CAD), especially diabetics. The long-term benefit of the internal thoracic artery graft is well established and remains the gold standard for revascularization of severe CAD. It is not always possible to achieve complete revascularization through arterial grafts, necessitating...
متن کاملMyocardial Consequences of Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery
Myocardial infarction after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery has been described clinically in up to 30% of patients but there is little morphologic information about the character and pathogenesis of this myocardial injury. We studied myocardium in the distribution of bypassed and nonbypassed coronary arteries for the presence of contraction band necrosis as compared to coagulation n...
متن کاملConsequences of coronary artery bypass grafting in smokers and addicts
Introduction: The most common cardiac disease is coronary artery disease (CAD) in the world. Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is implemented through two standard surgical techniques, namely off-pump beating-heart CABG (OPCABG) and on-pump CABG (ONCABG). The CABG results in various levels of morbidity, especially in smokers and addicts, who have a lower pain threshold. Regarding this, the ...
