  • Title: Which is the best graft for the right coronary artery?
    Author: Parissis H, Ramesh BC, Al-Alao B.
    Journal: Asian Cardiovasc Thorac Ann; 2015 Jan; 23(1):100-13. PubMed ID: 24585306.
    Abstract:
    Bilateral internal mammary arteries directed to the left coronaries are gaining popularity; an increasing level of evidence nowadays supports this surgical strategy. On the other hand, composite right internal mammary artery, radial artery, and gastroepiploic artery targeting high-grade stenotic lesions in the right coronary artery system may confer improved mid- and long-term patency compared to long saphenous veins. This analysis looks into the evidence comparing data of the third best available conduit for grafting the right coronary artery, and by extrapolating this report, compares total arterial revascularization vs. conventional coronary artery bypass grafting.
