Background: The optimal coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) technique is still evolving. This study aimed to evaluate the early results of total arterial off-pump using bilateral internal mammary arteries.
 Methods: was performed from May 2018 2019 at a cardiac surgery center in India. It included 200 patients with disease who had CABG arteries. follow-ups for three months. There were 5...

Background: Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is associated with diffuse systemic inflammatory responses during and after cardiac surgery and is associated with increased morbidity & mortality associated with Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting CABG, particularly in high risk sub set of patients i.e., advanced age, severe left ventricular dysfunction, renal failure, etc. The purpose of this study is to ...

BACKGROUND Although off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is now used worldwide for coronary revascularization, the pre- and intraoperative risk factors for myocardial injury associated with the surgical procedure remain to be elucidated. We performed a multivariate analysis to investigate factors that contribute to myocardial injury during off-pump CABG. METHODS The study populatio...

Graft patency and completeness of revascularization are major determinants of long-term outcome following coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) procedures (1,2). Even though the results of percutaneous coronary intervention are routinely assessed with on-table X-ray angiography, the patency of grafts is not routinely determined during either on-pump (ON-CABG) or off-pump (OP-CABG) revascularizati...

OBJECTIVES Left main disease (LMD), combined with carotid artery stenosis (CAS), constitutes a high-risk patient population. Priority is often given to coronary revascularization, due to the severity of the angina. However, the choice of revascularization strategy [off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) vs coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG)] remains elusive. METHODS A total of 1340 patie...

Surgical revascularization of the heart (CABG - coronary artery bypass grafting) is one way of treating coronary heart disease. Bleeding is one of the serious and frequent complications of heart surgery and can result in increased mortality and morbidity. Hemostasis disorder may be secondary consequences of surgical bleeding, preoperative anticoagulant therapy, and the use of cardiopulmonary by...

Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB) has become a more applicable procedure, even in patients with multi-vessel disease. However, the role of OPCAB for patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) requiring emergency revascularization has not been established yet. We reviewed our results of emergency coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) for patients with ACS. Seventy-two patients w...

Introduction: Metabolic syndrome (MS) is considered as an important risk factor for advanced coronary artery disease. This condition can increase the mortality and morbidity in the patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. The aim of the study was compared mortality and morbidity after off Pump- CABG surgery between patients with and without the Metabolic syndrome. Materi...

OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the protective effect of topical rifamycin SV treatment against sternal wound infection (SWI) in diabetic patients undergoing on-pump coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. METHODS One hundred and fifty-nine diabetic patients who were scheduled to undergo isolated on-pump CABG surgery were included. Eight were excluded for various reas...
