Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM The biological behaviour of coronary graft conduits over time may be considered by serial angiography. METHODS A single institution retrospective cohort received mostly clinically indicated angiography between 1997 and 2020, following coronary bypass surgery. Only perfectly patent grafts (absence of any lumen irregularity) for each conduit type at the first postoperative angiogram were selected for a later comparison. The latest angiograms were at least 5 years postoperatively, and at least 1 year after first postoperative angiogram. Analysis was done according to each graft (anastomosis). Comparisons used generalised estimating equations, adjusted for binary logistic regression. RESULTS Of 143 patients, there were 410 of 468 (87.6%) perfectly patent grafts at the first angiogram, analysed at 6.8±4.0 years postoperative, of which 157 were internal mammary arteries, 228 were radial arteries, and 25 were saphenous veins. At the latest angiogram (12.2±3.8 years postoperative), comparison with the first angiogram for each individual graft found preserved perfect patency for internal mammary arteries 156 of 157 (99.4%), and for radial arteries, 227 of 228 (99.6%) but saphenous veins deteriorated considerably 13 of 25 (52.0%). The two arterial grafts (internal mammary and radial) were superior to vein grafts (odds ratio 163; 95% confidence interval [CI] 22-1,211; p<0.001), but not different from each other (odds ratio 0.95; 95% CI 0.78-1.16; p=0.584). CONCLUSIONS From a position of known angiographic perfect patency post-CABG, internal mammary artery and radial artery grafts retained their perfect patency in the longer term, but saphenous vein grafts did not.

Late Clinical Outcomes of Total Arterial Revascularization or Multiple Arterial Grafting Compared to Conventional Single Arterial with Saphenous Vein Grafting for Coronary Surgery. J Clin Med 2023; 12:2516. [PMID: 37048600 PMCID: PMC10094905 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12072516] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/12/2023] [Revised: 03/17/2023] [Accepted: 03/24/2023] [Indexed: 03/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Coronary surgery provides better long-term outcomes than percutaneous coronary intervention. Conventional practice is to use a single arterial conduit supplemented by saphenous vein grafts. The use of multiple arterial revascularization (MAG), or exclusive arterial revascularization (TAR), however, is reported as having improved late survival. Survival is a surrogate for graft failure that may lead to premature death, and improved survival reflects fewer graft failures in the non-conventional strategy groups. The reasons for not using MAG or TAR may be due to perceived technical difficulties, a lack of definitive large-scale randomized evidence, a lack of confidence in arterial conduits, or resources or time constraints. Most people consider radial artery (RA) grafting to be new, with use representing approximately 2-5% worldwide, despite select centers reporting routine use in most patients for decades with improved results. In conclusion, the current body of evidence supports more extensive use of total and multiple arterial revascularization procedures in the absence of contraindications.

How to deal with nonsevere stenoses in coronary artery bypass grafting - a critical perspective on competitive flow and surgical precision. Curr Opin Cardiol 2022; 37:468-473.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW For invasive treatment of coronary artery disease (CAD), we assess anatomical complexity, analyse surgical risk and make heart-team decisions for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). With PCI, treating flow-relevant lesions is recommended, and reintervention easily treats disease progression. For CABG, some stenoses may only be borderline or nonsevere despite a clear surgical indication. As reoperations are not easy, the question on how to address these lesions has been around from the start, but has never satisfactorily been answered. RECENT FINDINGS With a new mechanistic perspective, we had suggested that infarct-prevention by surgical collateralization is the main prognostic mechanism of CABG in chronic coronary syndrome. Importantly, the majority of infarctions arise from nonsevere coronary lesions. Thus, surgical collateralization may be a valid treatment option for nonsevere lesions, but graft patency moves more into focus here, because graft patency directly correlates with the severity of coronary stenoses. In addition, CABG may even accelerate native disease progression. SUMMARY We here review the evidence for and against grafting nonsevere CAD lesions, suggesting that patency of grafts (to moderate lesions) may be improved by increasing surgical precision. In addition, we must improve our ability to predict future myocardial infarctions.

Abstract
Background We compared early outcomes, at a single academic institution, of implementing full coronary revascularization in coronary artery bypass grafting using multiarterial Y‐composite grafts with multiple sequential anastomoses. Methods and Results Clinical records of 425 consecutive patients who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting using Y‐grafting with left internal mammary artery and radial artery (Y‐RA group) or right internal mammary artery (Y‐RIMA group) from 2015 to 2019, were reviewed. These were compared with the institutional experience of isolated coronary artery bypass grafting cases (in situ on pump/off pump) for the same period of time. When comparing the 4 groups, the Y‐RIMA/RA groups revealed a higher number of distal anastomosis than the in situ on‐ or off‐pump groups. When the number of distal arterial anastomosis was analyzed, there was a superiority of using the Y‐configuration compared with the in situ approach. Moreover, there were no significant differences among groups for mortality and/or major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events in hospital or at 30‐day follow‐up. A subanalysis comparing the Y‐RIMA group with the Y‐RA group showed that complementary grafts to the Y‐construct were required to accomplish full revascularization more frequently in the Y‐RIMA group. Full‐arterial revascularization was achieved in 92.2% of the Y‐RA group and 72.0% of the Y‐RIMA group (P<0.001). In 82.8% of the Y‐RA group and 30.8% of the Y‐RIMA group, revascularization was completed as an anaortic procedure (P<0.001). Conclusions The 2 types of arterial Y‐composite grafting were able to be introduced in the routine practice of our institution showing comparable results to the established institutional practice. This procedure allowed for more arterial distal anastomosis to be performed safely without compromising outcomes.
