Coronary-Coronary Artery Bypass: An Alternative

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1987
Occasionally, a patient with calcification of the ascending aorta will be unsuitable for conventional saphenous vein aortocoronary bypass. Similarly, when a patient is seen with saphenous vein (or internal mammary artery) of inadequate diameter or quality, another method of revascularization must be selected.

Coronary artery bypass without cardiopulmonary bypass

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1992
The purpose of this article is twofold: to describe our technique for performing coronary artery bypass grafting without cardiopulmonary bypass (off pump) and to demonstrate that this operation is safe, in terms of mortality and certain indices of morbidity. Very little has been published in regard to off-bypass operations.

Conduits in Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting

Seminars in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2013
Modern cardiac practice in the United States is conservative when it comes to using bilateral internal mammary or radial artery grafts in coronary artery bypass surgery. Here, we examine the evidence regarding using other arterial grafts instead of veins as a complement to left internal mammary artery in surgical revascularization.

Coronary artery bypass grafting in octogenarians

Cardiovascular Surgery, 2001
Preoperative profiles, postoperative complications, and the early and late results in 32 patients 80 yrs of age and older (elderly group) who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting were compared with those in patients under 80 yrs of age (control group). In the elderly group, the prevalence of patients with preoperative creatinine clearance (Ccr.) &

Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery

Critical Care Nursing Clinics of North America, 2011
Coronary artery bypass surgery has taken many strides to become the effective intervention it is today. Although it has been the gold standard for cardiac revascularization for a number of years, the future of health care and technology will cause this standard to be morphed into a kinder, gentler approach that leads to even better quality outcomes and

Coronary-coronary bypass using the radial artery

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1995
This report describes the conditions and results of coronary-coronary bypass using the radial artery on the right coronary artery. The angiographic and clinical results are excellent.

Coronary Artery Bypass Graft for Anomalous Right Coronary Artery

Journal of Cardiac Surgery, 2010
A 27-year-old man with anomalous right coronary artery (RCA) presented with ventricular fibrillatory arrest. Computed tomography angiography revealed an anomalous RCA arising from the left sinus of Valsalva with an acute angulation at the coronary takeoff and compressed interarterial segment.

Coronary artery bypass grafting to a calcified right coronary artery

The Japanese Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2002
A severely calcified coronary artery demands a special technique in coronary artery bypass surgery. We have successfully developed a "punch-out" technique for a calcified right coronary artery in a dialysis patient. After an incision into the target coronary artery, the calcified arterial wall was resected using a punch to make an oval hole for ...

Coronary artery bypass.

Drug and therapeutics bulletin, 1981
When we considered coronary artery bypass in 19731 we concluded that it was an effective means of relieving angina pectoris and worth considering where medical therapy had failed. Since then the influence of bypass on other aspects of ischaemic heart disease such as premature death, cardiac failure and myocardial infarction have been assessed and the ...

Coronary Artery Bypass in Totally Obstructed Major Coronary Arteries

Archives of Surgery, 1971
Of 278 patients undergoing aorto-coronary artery bypass grafts through July 1970, a total of 167 (62.2%) had 220 complete occlusions of one or more major coronary arteries. The right coronary artery (RCA) was occluded in 61%, the left anterior descending (LAD) in 28%, the left circumflex (LCA) in 10%, and the left main (LM) in less than 1%.
