  • Title: [A case of simultaneous operation of coronary artery bypass and ascending aorta to bifemoral bypass for ischemic heart disease combined with bilateral leg ischemia].
    Author: Obayashi T, Konishi T, Kaneko T, Oki T, Oshima S, Yuasa K.
    Journal: Kyobu Geka; 1992 Aug; 45(9):839-42. PubMed ID: 1507718.
    Abstract:
    A 58-year-old man was admitted to our hospital because of angina pectoris with severe intermittent claudication. Angiography showed triple-vessel disease of the coronary artery and complete obstruction of the bilateral common iliac arteries from their origins. Both femoral arteries were patent by collateral supplies. Combined revascularization of coronary and femoral arteries was performed. Coronary arteries were bypassed with in situ left internal thoracic artery, gastroepiploic artery and saphenous vein graft. Bilateral femoral arteries were bypassed with externally supported Dacron graft from ascending aorta through the preperitoneal space. The patient recovered well and postoperative angiography revealed all bypass grafts patent.
