Background Although multiarterial grafting or bilateral mammary artery use is being
increasingly emphasized for contemporary coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) practice …

Objectives To undertake a systematic review and meta-analysis of cohort studies to compare
the patency and adverse outcomes of sequential and individual saphenous vein grafts …

OBJECTIVES Saphenous vein graft (SVG) remains the predominant conduit used in
coronary surgery. The internal mammary artery has higher later term patency and confers …

Background It is unknown if the presence of saphenous vein grafting (SVG) adversely affects
late survival following coronary surgery with multiple arterial grafting (MAG) versus single …

Myocardial ischaemia resulting from obstructive coronary artery disease is a major cause of
morbidity and mortality in the developed world. Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery …

The patency and graft flow of sequential (seq. SVBG) and single saphenous vein bypass
grafts (single SVBG) in coronary bypass surgery were compared angiographically (mean …

Objectives: The long-term patency rates for individual and sequential saphenous vein grafts
(SVG) as coronary bypass conduits are angiographically compared; the impact of native …

BACKGROUND: Saphenous vein grafts continue to be the backbone of daily coronary
revascularization practice, but controversy still exists about whether to use them as an …

Background We compared 5-year graft patency rates and midterm clinical outcomes of
saphenous vein (SV) composite grafts with those of total arterial (TA) composite grafts in …

OBJECTIVES Our goal was to compare short-and midterm outcomes after coronary artery
bypass grafting (CABG) using 2 different revascularization strategies. METHODS A total of …
