Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Diffuse atherosclerosis of the anterior descending artery may require unconventional surgical treatment to increase graft flow. A 74-year-old man with severe, diffuse 3-vessel-coronary artery disease was presented to our institution with progredient angina pectoris symptoms. Intraoperatively, the revascularization of the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) was technically challenging because of the extremely calcified coronary artery disease; therefore we performed the longest endarterectomy of the LAD that has thus far been described. |
