Early and Midterm Results of No-Touch Aorta Multivessel Small Thoracotomy Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting: A Propensity Score-Matched Study

Abstract: Objective To carry out the comparative analysis of early and midterm results of no-touch aorta multivessel small thoracotomy coronary artery bypass grafting (MVST CABG), conventional off-pump (OPCABG) and on-pump CABG (ONCABG). Methods From 2007 to 2014, 537 consecutive patients underwent CABG by the same surgeon. Propensity score computer matching was performed, and a total of 453 patients were successful… Show more

“…The length of the incision with this innovative technique was drastically reduced, from 5 to 10 to nearly 2 to 3 inches 3 . Since then, many groups have reported their experience in this operation, including data for early and long‐term graft patency 4–6,10–13 . One of the most prominent papers on the subject was published by Ruel et al 7 in 2014.…”

“…Moreover, some authors report the significant experience in no-touch aorta multiple arterial revascularization. [4][5][6] The MIM CABG has been routinely performed in our institution since 2014. To assess and to demonstrate its feasibility, we retrospectively analyzed the quality of the grafts in the patients subjected to this procedure by CT-angiography (CTA).…”

“…In the era of minimally invasive surgery, patients prefer durable outcomes with less invasive approaches, which help them to recover their normal activity. Minimally invasive coronary surgery–CABG (MICS CABG) via left anterior thoracotomy is reportedly a less invasive and sternum‐sparing approach for multivessel or left main artery disease 6‐9 . Unlike CABG via a sternotomy, which has been studied for many years with convincing data showing its effectiveness and reproducibility, fewer objective data are available for MICS CABG, especially angiographic data regarding the graft patency and CR rates 10‐12 …”
