ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
The distal end anastomosis is critical to the entire sequential grafts in coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), but caliber mismatch diminishes the quality of the anastomosis. We aimed to introduce a modified distal end side-to-side (deSTS) anastomosis to handle the size mismatch and compared with classic distal end end-to-side (deETS) anastomosis.METHODS:
From January 2014 to December 2018, 185 patients who underwent off-pump CABG with size mismatched sequential vein grafts (≥3.5 mm) and target coronaries (1.0-1.5 mm) at the distal end anastomoses were included. We retrospectively reviewed the data of the patients, perioperative and follow-up outcomes were analyzed.RESULTS:
The deSTS group (n = 67) showed higher anastomotic flow (19.8 ± 8.0 vs 14.9±6.8 mL/min; p < 0.001) and lower pulsatility index (2.7 ± 0.8 vs 3.2 ± 1.0; p = 0.001) than the deETS group (n = 118). Higher incidence of in-hospital myocardial infarction (MI) was found in the deETS group but without significant difference (9.0% vs. 15.3%; p = 0.220). Kaplan-Meier analysis illustrated a relatively lower MI and major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) incidence in the deSTS group, and the deSTS group was associated with a reduction in long-term death, MI and MACCE in the adjusted Cox regression model. In addition, relatively higher graft patency was found in the deSTS group.CONCLUSIONS:
The deSTS anastomosis showed superiority in solving size mismatch in sequential CABG, including better intraoperative flow dynamics, ideal long-term graft patency and reduced the incidence of perioperative and follow-up adverse events especially in MI.Palavras-chave
