Left upper lobectomy after CABG with the left internal mammary artery graft.

چکیده
Left upper lobectomy in a patient with a history of Left Internal Mammary Artery (LIMA) graft for Coronary Artery Bypass Graft surgery (CABG) is a challenge for the surgical team. The adhesion formation in the left chest, especially around the left internal mammary artery graft, may cause diffculty for surgery. The injury of LIMA during dissection may lead to serious acute myocardial ischemia and cardiac arrest. The authors reported a case of successful operation after receiving both good surgical and anesthetic plan prior to surgery.

Bilateral internal mammary arteries: a new trick for coronary artery bypass grafting.
I read with interest the article in the April 2012 edition by Grau et al. I congratulate Grau et al. [1] for an excellent study. It will be interesting to know how both internal mammary arteries were used—either in situ or as y graft. In spite of the established superiority of left internal mammary artery graft, the use of the bilateral internal mammary artery has not gained popularity. In rece...

[email protected] The use of the left internal mammary artery (LIMA) is preferred for the revascularization of a stenosed or occluded left anterior descending artery (LAD). Occlusion or stenosis of proximal part of the left subclavian artery (LSA) could induce reverse blood flow in LIMA called coronary subclavian steal syndrome (CSSS) and should be revascularized before coronary artery bypass ...

Among the present classes of calcium channel blockers, dihydropyridine derivatives are widely used in the therapy of hypertension, angina pectoris and the other cardiovascular diseases. Since the prototype of dihydropyridine derivatives, nifedipine, does not have the optimum pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic characteristics, several attempts have been made to synthesize other drugs in this ...

In patients with history of coronary artery disease angina pectoris is usually attributed to the progression of atherosclerotic lesions. However, in patients with previous coronary artery bypass graft operation (CABG) using internal mammary artery grafts, great vessel disease should also be considered. Herein we present two patients with history of CABG whose symptoms were suspicious for corona...
متن کاملFrequency of early occlusion and stenosis in a left internal mammary artery to left anterior descending artery bypass graft after surgery through a median sternotomy on conventional bypass: benchmark for minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass.
BACKGROUND Uncertainty exists regarding the frequency of early occlusion when the left internal mammary artery (LIMA) is anastomosed to the left anterior descending artery (LAD) through a sternotomy with conventional coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). The issue has gained importance for comparison with less invasive surgical approaches in which operative exposure may be limited and graft a...
