Miniaturized extracorporeal circulation vs. off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting: What the evidence shows?

Abstract: Recognition of the potentially deleterious effects of esxtracorporeal circulation led to off-pump coronary artery surgery (OPCAB) experiencing a surge in popularity in the initial decade after its conception. However, OPCAB has its own limitations and technical difficulties, such as coronary access, increased left ventricular size and reduced function, which may lead to the potential for suboptimal revascularization. As an alternative technique, miniaturized extracorporeal circulation (mECC) may provide a more… Show more

“…In on-pump cardiac surgery, various factors effect renal perfusion and stimulate renal vasoconstriction: systemic inflammation, hypoperfusion, ischemia reperfusion injury, acidosis, vasopressor medications, hypothermia, hemolysis, embolism and nonpulsatile flow [21,22,23,24]. The release of vasodilator cyclooxygenase metabolites and the formation of nitric oxide following compromised renal circulation are important for the restoration of renal blood flow after ischemia reperfusion injury of the renal vascular bed [25].…”
