Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
The length of the in situ right internal mammary artery (RIMA) often restricts its use as a graft to distal marginal arteries. We describe herein a retrocaval supra-azygous extra-pleural passage of the RIMA that allows a significant gain in length. We report our experience in 30 patients with distal marginal lesions or with large hearts. |
