Evaluation of internal mammary artery implantation
The American Journal of Cardiology, 1972Abstract Twenty patients who underwent internal mammary artery implantation for the treatment of incapacitating angina pectoris were studied before and 1 year after operation. Studies included treadmill exercise test, right heart catheterization at rest and during exercise, selective coronary adenography and selective visualization of the implanted ...

The use of bilateral internal mammary artery (BIMA) grafting for myocardial revascularization has been demonstrated to provide long-term benefits compared to revascularization using single left internal mammary artery (SIMA) and venous conduits. However, it is still controversial whether the use of BIMA is associated with a higher hospital mortality ...

Sternal Retractor for Internal Mammary Artery
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1996A sternal retractor for easy visualization of the internal mammary artery and retrosternal area is described. We have successfully used this retractor for all internal mammary dissections without sternal or costochondral fractures in the past 6 months.

Internal mammary artery with side-branch
Asian Cardiovascular and Thoracic Annals, 2016We present the case of a 72-year-old man who underwent off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting of 4 coronary arteries with exclusive use of the left internal mammary artery with a side-branch (mediastinal artery). Before discharge from the hospital, contrast computed tomography angiography confirmed the patency of all 4 coronary grafts.

The distal latero-circumflex arteries and the posterior descending artery are located so far from the mammary arteries that they cannot be revascularized by the conventional procedure. Reimplantation of the right internal mammary artery (RIMA) used as a free graft into the left internal mammary artery (LIMA) in situ doubles the length of the RIMA, thus

Techniques to Maximize Mammary Artery Length
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1985The available length of the internal mammary artery has limited its versatility as a bypass conduit. Several techniques for increasing usable internal mammary artery length are described.

Repair of damaged internal mammary artery
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2002The use of the internal mammary artery (IMA) in coronary artery bypass graft surgery is an independent predictor of late survival in all subsets of patients and should not be denied to any subgroup. Therefore damage to the IMA during harvesting is a catastrophic complication after which the graft is usually discarded.

Radiographic anatomy of the internal mammary arteries
Catheterization and Cardiovascular Diagnosis, 1981AbstractThe radiographic anatomy of the IMAs is described based on bilateral selective arteriography in 100 patients with coronary artery disease. The right and left IMAs were identical in caliber in their mid portions in 94% of cases. Fifteen percent of the IMAs measured less than 2 mm in luminal diameter at the level of the fourth costal cartilage ...
