Abstract:

Aim. To analyze the results of conventional sequential bypass surgery and the use of native bifurcation in mammary-coronary anastomoses. Material and methods. Analysis included 5 coronary artery disease (CAD) patients who underwent sequential coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) using bilateral internal mammary arteries (IMA). Conventional sequential bypass surgery as well as use of native IMA bifurcations were compared. Operations were performed without cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), under parallel CPB and using cardioplegia. Results. Clinical and angiographic survey showed safety and efficacy of multiple IMA bypass surgery using different techniques of sequential grafts in relation to each individual patient.
