Intraoperative validation of Left internal mammary artery Graft by Fluorescence Imaging Technique
Background/Introduction In Surgical revascularization by CABG surgery Left internal mammary artery (LIMA) to Lt.ant.descending (LAD) is considered gold standard conduit of choice for myocardial revascularization. Although conventional angiography is gold standard for assessing graft patency but rarely available in operating room in Bangladesh. So intraoperative florescence imaging (Novadaq Tech...
متن کاملLeft Internal Mammary Artery Graft-to-Pulmonary Artery Fistula
DOI: 10.5935/abc.20140160 An 80-year-old man was admitted to our hospital because of an acute coronary syndrome. He had undergone coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) 12 years ago, which involved a left internal mammary artery (LIMA) graft to the left anterior descending coronary artery. Direct LIMA injection revealed an arteriovenous fistula between the distal portion of a grossly dilated LI...
متن کاملTransthoracic Doppler echocardiography of the left internal mammary artery graft.
Assessment of the left internal mammary artery (LIMA) graft patency currently requires invasive investigation through coronary angiography. In the last years the successful application of noninvasive Doppler spectrum analysis has been reported for patency assessment of the LIMA graft after myocardial revascularization. Echocardiography is considered to be a sensitive noninvasive screening modal...
متن کاملDirect stenting of a transradial left internal mammary artery graft.
Taking the transfemoral approach when performing a left internal mammary artery (LIMA) graft intervention is generally recognized as posing significant technical challenges. However, little has been reported on alternative transradial approaches to LIMA. In this report, we present our experience in a patient who had anastomosis-site LIMA graft stenosis and was successfully treated with direct s...
متن کاملSuction of the left internal mammary artery graft into a pleural drain visualized by computerized tomography.
A 69-year-old man with medically refractory 3-vessel coronary artery disease underwent sequential, minimally invasive coronary artery bypass grafting of the left internal mammary artery (LIMA) to the left anterior descending artery and first diagonal artery. The surgery was conducted off-pump and was uneventful. A pleural drain was placed on the left side at the end of the surgery. Postoperativ...
