Off-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting Revisited: Experience and Evidence from Japan

Abstract: Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB) is performed in about 65% of patients who require surgical coronary revascularization, and has become the standard procedure in coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in Japan. As a background of the high rate of OPCAB, many clinical and experimental studies have been performed and reported in Japan. In this review, several factors associated with OPCAB are discussed based on relevant and important clinical studies published in Japan in the English language.

“…In general, the initial experience of performing OPCABG operations (performed generally in low-risk patients), based on numerous studies, could not convincingly demonstrate the advantages over performing such procedures on-pump. (5)(6)(7)(8) During the same period, the first reports on the results of OPCABG in high-risk patients appeared. (9) The milestone work was published by J.Puskas et al, (10) which convincingly demonstrated the advantages of OPCABG over on-pump CABG in high-risk patients.…”

“…Currently, with the exception of Japan and some other Asian countries, using a conventional cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) circuit to perform CABG on an arresting heart is still considered the gold standard approach for surgical revascularization of CAD (11). There are about half a million surgical revascularization procedures either with CPB (on-pump CABG) or without (off-pump CAB [OPCAB]) performed in the United States every year (12).…”

“…In the United States, only 20% to 25% of CABG surgeries are performed off-pump versus more than 65% of such procedures that are carried out in Asian countries such as Japan (11,42). Equal success has been achieved using both thoracic epidural anesthesia and general anesthesia techniques for OPCAB surgery (40,(47)(48)(49).…”
