[Hybrid Coronary Revascularization of Minimally Invasive Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting and Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in a Patient with Left Main Coronary Stenosis].

ABSTRACT

We report a successful case of hybrid coronary revascularization of minimally invasive coronary artery bypass grafting( MICS-CABG) and percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI). The patient was a 78-year-old man with angina pectoris due to left main trunk (LMT) lesion, and had a history of repeated PCI to the left anterior descending artery (LAD) and the left circumflex artery (LCX) for angina pectoris. He presented with a chest pain on effort in June, 2015. A coronary angiogram showed a severe stenosis in the LMT extending to LAD and LCX. We performed hybrid therapy of CABG to LAD, and PCI to LMT and the proximal portion of LCX because the lesion was technically and suitable for PCI. CABG to LAD was performed via left mini thoracotomy using the left inter mammary artery (LIMA). LIMA was harvested under 3-dimentional endoscope. On the 5th post-operative day, PCI was performed to LMT and LCX. The postoperative course was uneventful and he was discharged on the 11th post-operative day. This case suggests that hybrid coronary revascularization is less invasive and feasible for selected patients with multi-vessel disease.
