“…However, not all studies agree about the efficacy of the Vineberg procedure. Dart et al 22 performed an investigation of flow in the LITA in humans during a thoracic sympathectomy surgery. A direct measurement of the flow was obtained in 13 patients previously submitted to the Vineberg procedure.…”

“…Although the same phenomenon was observed for the left aniterior descending branch, flow of the left coroniary artery was not reduced, but represented left circumflex flow exclusively. (5) Any comparison between bypass flow and postoperative clinical results has to bear in mind that the xenon-residue detection technic measures Circulation, Volume XLVI, Septermber 1972 average flow only; hence small underperfused areas within the region supplied by the bypass may escape recognition. Nevertheless, these studies indicate that the immediate aim of bypass surgery, i.e.…”

Postoperative Evaluation of Myocardial Blood Flow in Aorta-to-Coronary Artery Vein Bypass Grafts Using the Xenon-Residue Detection Technic

et al. 1972

By the use of the xenon-residue detection technic, myocardial blood flow (MBF) was assessed 3-17 months after surgery in nine patients with an aorta-to-left anterior descending bypass (LAD-BP), in nine patients with an aorta-to-right coronary artery bypass (RCA-BP), and in two patients with both LAD-and RCA-BP. In addition, MBF was registered in the corresponding main coronary artery. In each case coronary angiography revealed a patent vein graft. LAD-BP flow averaged 58 ml/min/100 g, this being slightly lower than the average flow value recorded after injection into the main left coronary artery of these patients (64 ml/min/100 g). LAD-BP flow did not differ from the value From the ment of angina pectoris.' The low operative mortality and often striking postoperative clinical results are important factors contributing to the success of this method. This is confirmed by postoperative investigations reporting angiographic patency of vein grafts in 80% of the patients.2 3 In spite of the favorable angiographic and clinical observations, objective evaluation of bypass function remains indispensable in order to avoid inadequate or false conclusions as were encountered in patients submitted to internal mammary 445 by guest on March 30, 2015 http://circ.ahajournals.org/ Downloaded from
