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.) &

Hybrid Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting [PDF]
Anesthesiology Clinics, 2008 Owing 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.

This chapter provides practical information for optimizing scanning of coronary artery bypass grafts and reading the images. Reading the images is best done on axial and multiplanar reformations and should include the evaluation of graft anastomoses and run-offs as well as the native vessels. The thoracic aorta and cardiac function should be considered

Ulnar Artery as a Coronary Bypass Graft
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1998The ulnar artery has been used as a coronary bypass graft in 8 patients when it was deemed unsafe to harvest the radial artery after evaluation of the arterial circulation in the forearm and hand.The ulnar artery was removed from the lower three quarters of the forearm, along with its satellite veins.

Pharmacology of coronary artery bypass grafts
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1999Spasm of arterial and venous graft conduits can occur both during harvesting and after the graft is connected. Attempts to overcome spasm during harvesting by probing or hydraulic distension can cause structural damage to the graft, which may impair short- and long-term patency.

Radial-Artery Grafts for Coronary-Artery Bypass Surgery
New England Journal of Medicine, 2018Gaudino et al. (2018 May 31 issue of NEJM) report a lower risk of the composite of death, myocardial infarction, or repeat revascularization with radial-artery graft than with saphenous-vein graft revascularization during coronary-artery bypass grafting (CABG).

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
