Background Geriatric patients with multivessel coronary artery disease (CAD) are a
challenging group to treat; these cases elicit discussion within heart teams regarding the …

Background We sought to compare the incidence of incomplete revascularization (IR) and
long-term survival (up to 20 years) after off-pump (OPCAB) versus on-pump (ONCAB) …

Background Despite advance in off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) grafting, there
are large debating issues regarding survival benefit between OPCAB and on-pump …

Background: The 30-day and 1-year follow-up analysis of the GOPCABE trial (German Off-
Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting in Elderly Patients) revealed no significant difference …

Objectives We conducted a multicenter observational cohort study of the effect of
completeness of revascularization on long-term survival after coronary artery bypass …

BACKGROUND: It is not known whether surgeons preferentially assign patients requiring
fewer grafts (1 to 3) to off-pump coronary artery bypass graft surgery (OPCABG) and those …

OBJECTIVE Although there have been several studies that compared the efficacy of
percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), the …

Abstract Objectives In Japan, off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) is more common
than on-pump coronary artery bypass. Superior early results of OPCAB have been reported; …

The longstanding debate on off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB) versus on-
pump coronary artery bypass grafting (ONCAB) has primarily focused on short-and mid-term …
