Reoperative coronary artery bypass grafting
Current Opinion in Cardiology, 1994In recent years reoperative coronary artery bypass surgery has become increasingly more commonplace. This article reviews the current status of this procedure with regard to patient population, risk factors, and long-term follow-up. Important aspects of the specific technical considerations involved in reoperative surgery are also reviewed and ...

Quadruple Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1976In our last 150 consecutive revascularization operations, 30 patients (20%) have had 4 or more bypass grafts. One patient died after quadruple grafting (mortality, 3%). Twenty-two (75%) of the survivors have been rehabilitated to active work status and 25 (86%) were considered by their cardiologists to have improved function postoperatively by New York

Repeat Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting
Scandinavian Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 1991In 1981-1989 we performed repeat coronary artery bypass grafting on 42 men and 10 women (mean age 55 years) with angina pectoris recurring on average 27 months after the primary operation. The cause was occlusion or stenosis of vein grafts alone (59%) or in combination with progression of native coronary atherosclerosis (31%) or progression in the ...

Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting
Critical Care Nursing Quarterly, 2018Coronary artery bypass grafting remains a viable and successful option for treating high-grade coronary artery stenosis. The postoperative recovery is individual for each patient, but when following long-standing guidelines and physician orders, outcomes are generally positive.

Hybrid Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting
Anesthesiology Clinics, 2008Owing to the high prevalence of atherosclerotic coronary artery disease, treatment has proceeded along three separate paths: medical, surgical, and percutaneous intervention. Medical treatment is now routinely combined with both surgical treatment and percutaneous methods; however, the surgical and percutaneous routes are often viewed as in competition.

Surgical coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is the standard of care for revascularization of left main or three-vessel coronary artery disease. The off-pump coronary artery bypass graft (OPCAB) procedure avoids the use of cardiopulmonary bypass ...

Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2005
Coronary revascularization has become the principal treatment modality in patients with severe coronary artery disease. The broader application of percutaneous coronary interventions in patients with multivessel disease and the recent introduction of drug-eluting stents have both lead to a decline in the number of patients referred for surgical ...

Coronary artery bypass grafting in octogenarians
Cardiovascular Surgery, 2001Preoperative 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 grafting without cardiopulmonary bypass
Current Opinion in Cardiology, 1998In off-pump coronary artery grafting, cardiopulmonary bypass and its associated maneuvers, i.e., aortic manipulation and global cardiac arrest, may be avoided, and thus its morbidity and mortality may be reduced. Modern tissue stabilizers allow accurate construction of anastomosis and are now considered indispensable. Currently, there are two groups of

Contemporary coronary artery bypass grafting
Frontiers of Medicine, 2014Current evidence clearly demonstrates that coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) remains the "gold standard" treatment for most patients with multivessel and left main stem disease. This article summarizes the relevant evidence basis demonstrating that CABG, in comparison to stenting, reduces mortality and subsequent myocardial infarction and the need
