Abstract
For patients with coronary artery insufficiency and myocardial ischemia, coronary artery bypass grafts using saphenous vein or internal mammary artery have been successful in managing short, localized, or proximal obstructions in the coronary artery with patent distal vessels [26-27]. For patients with diffuse or long obstructions without adequate distal vessels, endarterectomy either with carbon dioxide or mechanical techniques combined with proximal saphenous vein bypass graft has been an adjunctive substitute procedure where simple bypass alone could not be performed [1–27].
