Sequential Revascularization of Intramuscular Left Anterior Descending Coronary Artery

Journal of Cardiac Surgery, 1985
Abstract We present a new technique for avoiding possible kinking or angulation of the sequential left internal mammary artery to left anterior descending artery (LIMA‐LAD) anastomoses when the LAD follows an intramuscular course. A 3‐ to 5‐mm cusp of saphenous vein segment is interposed between the intramuscular LAD segment and internal mammary artery

Transxiphoid Revascularization of the Anterior Descending Coronary Artery with the Left Mammary Artery

Innovations: Technology and Techniques in Cardiothoracic and Vascular Surgery, 2021
Revascularization of the coronary arteries, via open sternotomy and on cardiopulmonary bypass, remains the most common cardiac surgical procedure in the United States. Patients, and cardiologists, seek an alternative to dividing the sternum while reaping the advantages of left internal mammary artery (LIMA) revascularization of the diseased left ...

Left anterior descending artery length in left and right coronary artery dominance

Coronary Artery Disease, 2001
Coronary stenosis of the left anterior descending artery (LAD) is respected by cardiologists because of its negative influence on morbidity and mortality. An important anatomical consideration is the length of the LAD.To investigate the relationship between length of LAD and coronary dominance.Retrospective comparison of 100 consecutive angiograms with

Coronary Artery Fistula as a Bypass of a Left Anterior Descending Coronary Artery Stenosis

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1997
We present a case of coronary artery fistula originating from the proximal left anterior descending coronary artery anterior to a critical atheromatous stenosis, draining into the main trunk of the pulmonary artery and with a third branch draining into the coronary vessel itself, distal to the lesion.

Single coronary artery but dual left anterior descending coronary artery anomaly

Cardiovascular Revascularization Medicine, 2011
Due to high spatial resolution and ability to create 3dimensional reconsctruction of the vasculature multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) allows for improved, noninvasive, and accurate visualization of coronary artery anomalies [1]. Herein we described a new type of dual left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) anomaly in patient with single ...

Coronary Cameral Fistula: Left Anterior Descending Artery to Left Ventricle

Journal of Cardiac Surgery, 2009
Coronary cameral fistulas are unusual congenital or acquired anomalous communications between an epicardial coronary artery and a cardiac chamber. We present such an unusual entity here of a coronary cameral fistula between the left anterior descending artery and the left ventricle that was repaired surgically.

Reconstruction of the Left Anterior Descending Coronary Artery

JAMA, 1971
A combination of proximal vein bypass graft and distal (CO2) gas endarterectomy for revascularizing a diffusely and totally obstructed left anterior descending coronary artery was successfully performed in five patients. This technical improvement provides immediate blood flow in an artery not previously considered amenable to surgical reconstruction.

Mammary Artery Patch Reconstruction of Left Anterior Descending Coronary Artery

Asian Cardiovascular and Thoracic Annals, 2008
Most patients with diffuse coronary disease require endarterectomy for revascularization. In view of the high morbidity and mortality associated with coronary endarterectomy, patch angioplasty and reconstruction of the coronary artery was developed. We retrospectively evaluated 104 patients who underwent mammary artery patch angioplasty of the left ...

Dual left anterior descending coronary artery with origin of short left anterior descending coronary artery from left main shaft: a rare coronary anomaly.

The Journal of invasive cardiology, 2014
Dual left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery with separate origin of the short LAD from the left main (LM) coronary artery is very rare and not reported in the literature. A 49-year-old male was admitted with history of mid-sternal chest pain at rest.
