Abstract:
We have experienced two cases of coronary revascularization without extracorporeal circulation in a 63 year old female patient and a 75 year old male patient. The first patient had the lesion which was the nearly total occulusion of mid-LAD, about 90% luminal narrowing of second diagonal branch and less than 50% stenosis of proximal RCA. The other male patient had a single vessel disease involving about 95% stenosis of proximal LAD and 1st diagonal branch. PTCA failed in the first patient because of relatively long sinus pause during procedure. In both of the patients, the coronary revascularizations were done at distal LAD and diagonal branch using left internal mammary artery and saphenous vein graft under the beating state, respectively. The postoperative courses were uneventful and the patients were discharged without any complications.
