Return of the Left Internal Mammary Artery
Cardiovascular Revascularization Medicine, 2021Competitive flow from a non-critical native vessel leading to longitudinal narrowing/atresia of the left internal mammary artery (LIMA) is described as "the string phenomenon." We describe spontaneous recanalization of an atretic LIMA following coronary artery bypass grafting for multivessel coronary artery disease.

"Demand" and Internal Mammary Artery Implantation
Circulation, 1967The results with internal mammary artery implantation in the myocardium after chronic, slow constriction of the left anterior descending coronary artery did not differ from the same implantation done with a normal coronary system. Patency rates, flow through the implanted vessel, cineangiographic appearances, and anatomical patterns were the same in ...

The Skeletonized Internal Mammary Artery
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1987The internal mammary artery increasingly is being used to construct multiple distal anastomoses. By skeletonizing the pedicle, the artery is functionally lengthened and sequential anastomoses are easier to perform.

Incidence of atherosclerosis in the internal mammary artery
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1989The long-term patency of the internal mammary artery (IMA) graft is better than that of the saphenous vein graft in coronary bypass procedures. The better patency is thought to be due in part to a relatively low incidence of atherosclerosis in the IMA.

Retrograde Flow in the Internal Mammary Artery
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1988Thirty-two patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting were studied to evaluate retrograde flow in the internal mammary artery (IMA). The left IMA pedicle was prepared in routine fashion from the level of the first rib superiorly to just distal to the IMA bifurcation.

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.

Cardiologia (Rome, Italy), 1999
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 ...

A New Internal Mammary Artery Retractor
The Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgeon, 1990A new retractor for asymmetric opening of the chest is presented. The instrument is mainly used for dissection of the internal mammary artery, but other applications are possible such as resection of large mediastinal tumors, or pulmonary resections through median sternotomy.
