ABSTRACT
UNLABELLED We have performed 321 cases of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), between October 15 1995 and November 20 2000. We have evaluated the operative results of 142 cases (44.2%) of conventional CABG and 179 cases (55.8%) of off-pump CABG performed during this period. The average numbers of bypassed grafts was 3.53 for conventional CABG, and 1.62 for off-pump CABG. The total number of 369 grafts were anastomosed to 501 coronary arteries for conventional CABG, and 283 grafts were anastomosed to 290 coronary arteries for off-pump CABG. RESULTS:
Although two saphenous veins were occluded, the early postoperative patency rate was 100% for conventional CABG using RITA, LITA, GEA and RA. Three site of stenosis in 18 LITAs and 2 in 16 RITAs were recognized in off-pump CABG without the use of stabilizers. One site of stenosis in 130 LITAs and 3 string signs in 44 GEA were recognized in off-pump CABG with the use of stabilizers. Postoperative angiography in 52 off-pump CABG cases at one year later showed no new lesion.CONCLUSION:
The use of stabilizers and LIMA suture enables adaptation of the MIDCAB procedure to a wider range of coronary artery bypass procedures, and a higher graft patency can be expected.
