Recently published evidence has raised concerns about worse late mortality and increasing
need for reintervention after off‐pump coronary artery bypass grafting. We undertook this …

Objective Despite increasing recognition of the benefits of off-pump coronary artery bypass
grafting (CABG), concerns persist regarding its impact on long-term mortality and freedom …

Objective To determine whether off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is
associated with worse long-term survival compared with on-pump CABG. We performed a …

Background Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) negates the requirement for
extracorporeal circulation used with the traditional on-pump approach. However, off-pump …

The superiority of either off-pump (OPCAB) or on-pump (ONCAB) coronary artery bypass
grafting (CABG) remains unclear despite a large body of literature evidence comparing the …

OBJECTIVES Recent data suggested that off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) may
carry a higher risk for mortality in the long term when compared to on-pump coronary artery …

A best evidence topic in cardiac surgery was written according to a structured protocol. The
question addressed was whether off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery …

Background The Surgical Management of Arterial Revascularization Therapies trial was
conceived to rigorously compare completeness of revascularization, clinical outcomes and …

Background: The long-term outcomes of off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG)
are the subject of speculation. Our institution has> 15 years of experience performing CABG …

Background Early outcomes for off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB) have
been extensively compared with on-pump coronary revascularization (ONCAB); however …
