Resection of a Giant Right Coronary Artery Aneurysm and Reconstruction with a Saphenous Vein Graft – A 20-Year Follow-Up: Case Report

The optimal management strategy for CAAs is debatable, and there are no clear guidelines. However, surgical management is generally preferred in cases of GCAAs, which was also the case for this patient. This reconstruction procedure, involving resection of the aneurysmal segment of the RCA and reconstruction with a saphenous vein graft, proved to be a durable and reliable approach, with the saphenous vein graft remaining patent for over 20 years. The 20-year follow-up provides valuable insight into the long-term durability of surgical intervention, allowing for comprehensive assessment of the durability and reliability of this procedure.
