Surgical Anatomy of the Internal Thoracic Artery
The internal thoracic artery (ITA) has become increasingly important in coronary artery bypass grafting due to the excellent long-term results. This study reviews its anatomic characteristics.The ITAs of 100 cadavers were examined and their origin, relation to the phrenic nerve, presence of lateral costal branch; origin of pericardiacophrenic arteries,

T grafts with the right internal thoracic artery to left internal thoracic artery versus the left internal thoracic artery and radial artery: Flow dynamics in the internal thoracic artery main stem [PDF]
Complete arterial coronary artery bypass grafting with 2 grafts can be achieved even in triple vessel disease by use of a T configuration. There is still uncertainty whether the coronary flow reserve in the main stem of the left internal thoracic artery is sufficient to supply more than 1 anastomosed coronary vessel.Between March 1996 and February 1999,
