OBJECTIVE

To evaluate the effect of radial artery on long-term results of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).

MATERIAL AND METHODS

A retrospective analysis included 174 patients who admitted for CABG. CABG with radial artery (RA) was performed in 93 patients, standard CABG with left internal thoracic artery and great saphenous vein — in 81 patients. The long-term results of surgical procedure were assessed.

RESULTS

It was shown that CABG with RA is comparable with standard CABG in the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events except for myocardial infarction. The last one was more common after CABG without RA. Both methods were comparable by postoperative class of angina and left ventricular ejection fraction. Survival was similar in both groups.

CONCLUSION

CABG with radial artery was characterized by similar results regarding cardiovascular events and lower incidence of myocardial infarction in comparison with standard CABG.
