Video Assisted Coronary Bypass Surgery [PDF]
Journal of Cardiac Surgery, 1995 An alternative way to revascularize coronary vessels is described, using arterial conduits without extracorporeal circulation. The heart is exposed via a small thoracotomy over the fifth left intercostal space. A thoracoscope is introduced into the thorax, to assist in the harvesting of the left internal mammary artery (LIMA). In selected patients with
