Importance Observational studies have suggested that the use of radial artery grafts for
coronary artery bypass grafting may improve clinical outcomes compared with the use of …

The primary hypothesis of the ROMA trial is that in patients undergoing primary isolated non-
emergent coronary artery bypass grafting, the use of 2 or more arterial grafts compared with …

Background The use of radial-artery grafts for coronary-artery bypass grafting (CABG) may
result in better postoperative outcomes than the use of saphenous-vein grafts. However …

Internal thoracic arteries (ITAs) should be used to bypass the left anterior descending (LAD)
artery when bypass of the LAD is indicated (class of recommendation [COR] I, level of …

Background: An internal thoracic artery graft to the left anterior descending artery is standard
in coronary bypass surgery, but controversy exists on the best second conduit. The RAPCO …

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to present radial and saphenous vein graft (SVG)
occlusion results more than 5 years following coronary artery bypass surgery. Background …

Background Observational studies suggest a survival advantage with bilateral single
internal thoracic artery (BITA) versus single internal thoracic artery grafting for coronary …

Background There remains uncertainty regarding the second‐best conduit after the internal
thoracic artery in coronary artery bypass grafting. Few studies directly compared the clinical …

Observational and randomized evidence shows that arterial grafts have better patency rates
than saphenous vein grafts (SVGs) in coronary artery bypass grafting. Observational studies …

Background: Benefits of multiarterial versus single-arterial coronary bypass grafting (CABG)
are debated. Objectives: This study sought to compare long-term survival, morbidity, and …
