Coronary endarterectomy for the diffusely diseased coronary artery

Abstract: The diffusely diseased coronary artery is challenging for cardiac surgeons because diffuse atheromatous lesions frequently render it unsuitable for conventional distal grafting. Coronary endarterectomy was introduced in the 1950s as a treatment option for diffusely diseased coronary arteries. However, initial studies demonstrated high operative mortality and morbidity associated with coronary endarterectomy; therefore, many cardiac surgeons have been reluctant to perform this procedure. With percutaneous coron… Show more

“…The optimal technique for performing endarterectomy remains controversial, there are many surgical methods, touch the plaque technique designated the closed and open technique, the closed technique is carried out by traction of the endarterectomized intima through a small arteriotomy. [1] Although it does not take much time, and anastomosis of the graft is easy, there are several possible disadvantages. These disadvantages include the possibilities that diagonal branches and septal perforators may be torn off despite gentle traction, and that the distal end of the lumen may become occluded with a thrombus or dissection owing to insufficient endarterectomy [6].…”

“…Госпитальная летальность в изучаемой группе соста-вила 2,7%, что соответствует данным литературы [3,7,8] и лишь немного превышает аналогичные показатели в группе изолированного неосложнённого АКШ. Выжи-ваемость к восьмому году наблюдения по методу Кап-лана-Мейера составила 89,3%, однако, если из общей группы исключить больных, умерших не от кардиоваску-лярных осложнений, то мы получим показатель выжива-емости, равный 95,1%.…”
