Abstract
The diff usely diseased coronary artery is a challenge for cardiac surgeons, although coronary endarterectomy is an option for surgical reconstruction of a diff usely diseased vessel. Coronary endarterectomy assures complete revascularization of myocardium in case of diff usely diseased vessels and prevents residual ischemia but it has not been widely used. Recently cardiac surgeons are performing and increasing number of coronary artery endarterectomy and it has evolved as an important adjuvant procedure in coronary artery bypass graft ing surgery. We assessed the early clinical and echocardiographic outcomes of 22 patients undergoing coronary artery endarterectomy of Left Anterior Descending (LAD) diagonal (D1or D2) and Right Coronary Artery (RCA) with patch plasty method using Left Internal Th oracic Artery (LITA) and Saphenous Vein Graft (SVG) between January 2017 and June 2018.
