Introduction and objectives
The use of the left internal mammary artery for grafting of coronary arteries other than the left anterior descending artery is in discussion. The objective of this study was to evaluate mid and long term patency rates of composite arterial grafts and the associated risks factors.
Methods
We retrospectively studied pati...

An 80-year-old man was admitted to our hospital because of an acute coronary syndrome. He had undergone coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) 12 years ago, which involved a left internal mammary artery (LIMA) graft to the left anterior descending coronary artery. Direct LIMA injection revealed an arteriovenous fistula between the distal portion of...
Background:
Minimally invasive procedures have demonstrated their effectiveness in reducing the recovery times while ensuring optimal results and minimizing complications. Regarding the coronary artery surgical revascularization field, the evolution of techniques and technology is permitting new surgical strategies that are increasingly precise an...
At the Instituto Dante Pazzanese de Cardiollogia, the use of mammary-coronary anastomosis was iniciated in 1972, isolated or with saphenous vein by-pass or other procedure. Initially only left internal mammary artery LAD anastomosis was employed in a few (57) cases. In 1973/1974, the aplication of this technique was intensified-386 cases. The metho...
OBJECTIVES The Arterial Revascularization Trial (ART) is a randomized comparison of bilateral internal mammary artery (BIMA) versus
single internal mammary artery (SIMA) grafting in coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery and is one of the largest randomized
trials of surgery ever conducted. ART is also one of the largest studies of contemporar...
Background
Inflammation plays an important role in all the stages of atherosclerotic plaque development. The current study aimed at assessing the altered expression of genes functioning in inflammation within the early stage (ES) and advanced stage (AS) atherosclerotic plaques obtained from patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG)...
