“…The rate of mediastinitis was 0.9% (7/743), which is similar to our study (1%, 2/208). In our series, we dissected the BIMA using the narrow pedicle IMA first and then resected the endothoracic fascia using the semi-skeletonization technique [25],[26]. Therefore, more muscle was left attached to the chest wall.…”

“…The addition of off-pump techniques to this approach creates a more technically demanding procedure. 8 OPCAB offers superior postoperative outcomes with regard to major cerebrovascular and cardiac complications 9,17,18 and disproportional benefits in high-risk patients. 10 The combination of an aortic, no-touch strategy with the TAR techniques used in this series can effectively reduce neurologic complications while yielding excellent long-term outcomes.…”

“…In our series, we dissected the BIMA using the narrow pedicle IMA first, and then resected the endothoracic fascia by the semiskeletonization technique. [2526] Therefore, more muscle was left attached to the chest wall, thus minimizing sternal devascularization and possibly reducing the risk of deep sternal wound infection as well. In this group, there were six patients who suffered from a wound event, including two diabetic patients.…”
