Is One Arterial Graft Sufficient?

In my experience if patient is more younger more arterial graft is better than redo CABG.

Dear Gianni Congratulations, I agree with your conclusions. I also think we should learn more in how to manage, handle and preserve the saphenous vein. Many of us have some patients with a vein patent after more than 40 years Apart from the BIMAIs important to use other sources of non touching the aorta were the surgeons will be comfortable . In the future in my impresión many more patients will be benefit with Hybrid revascularización procedures, so we, surgeons should need to learn more in how to perform the MIDCAB or MINI OPCAB approach in grafting the LIMA to the LAD with less sternum opening and , less traumatic ,and quicker recovery
