Abstract:
Objective To analyze the mid- and long-term results after coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG), to evaluate the accuracy of multi-detector CT coronary angiography (MDCT) on the graft patency status and to compare the patency for different grafts. Methods One hundred and one cases underwent CABG from June 1992 to March 2008 were followed up by searching the database of MDCT (42 cases) and selective coronary angiography (SCA, 59 cases). The mean following up period was (66.79 ±44.27) months. Three hundreds and 10 grafts including 115 arterial and 195 venous were analyzed.A comparison of the patency rate between the arterial and venous grafts was also carried out. At the mean time, 2 groups were divided according to the paft lesions( patency of not). Uunivariate analysis and Logistic regression analysis were made for statistics. Results At the follow-up of (53.93 ± 36.80) months, the patent rate of LIMA, RA, SV and CV examined by MDCT was 94.7%, 92.0%, 85.9% and 60.0%, respectively. The patent rate for MDCT patients with angina was 83.5%, and 95.2% for angina-free group ( P = 0.046). At the follow-up of (75.95 ±47.09) months, the patent rate of LIMA, RA, SV and CV examined by SCA was 87.1%, 81.0%, 53.6% and 57. 1%, respectively. In SCA patients the patent rate was 62.0% for angina group and 100% for angina-free group ( P = 0.025 ). According to logistic regression analysis, only the postoperative period was statistically related to the graft lesion. Conclusion MDCT could find out the occlusions and obvious stenoses of the grafts after CABG. It might be served as a noninvasive method to evaluate the grafts patency postoperatively. The mid- and long-term patency of arterial grafts is better than venous grafts. Graft lesion is an important factor leading to postoperative recurrent angina pectoris. The severity of the graft lesion has a close relation to the lenth of postoperative period.
