Off pump coronary bypass grafting of the circumflex artery [PDF]
European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 1999 The circumflex artery is the most challenging vessel to be grafted off pump, since it requires lifting and rotating of the heart. A method of exposure and stabilisation of the circumflex during construction of the anastomosis is described. The technique, which is routinely used in our institution, is effective, simple and safe.

Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting in octogenarians [PDF]
Journal of Thoracic Disease, 2016 Enhanced life expectancy has confronted cardiac surgery with a rapidly growing population of octogenarians needing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Octogenarians are deemed a high-risk patient population with increased postoperative morbidity and mortality following conventional CABG using cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2021 Background Red cell distribution width (RDW) level is routinely provided in a simple and inexpensive complete blood count report. However, RDW is sometimes overlooked. Recently a higher RDW level is found associated with postoperative mortality after off-

Coronary artery bypass surgery in high-risk patients
Current Controlled Trials in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2005 Background In high-risk coronary artery bypass patients; off-pump versus on-pump surgical strategies still remain a matter of debate, regarding which method results in a lower incidence of perioperative mortality and morbidity. We describe our experience
