Mid-term angiographic evaluation of LIMA-LAD anastomoses following LAD endarterectomy in coronary artery bypass grafting
Coronary artery endarterectomy should be considered a viable option for surgeons to achieve satisfactory revascularization in cases where suitable anastomosis sites on coronary arteries to ensure adequate outflow are not available. Our findings align closely with literature reports indicating that endarterectomy performed on the LAD, with LIMA used as the conduit, leads to promising outcomes.
