“…Off-pump CABG has been associated with better operative mortality and morbidity in octogenarians; however, results vary and there is no clear benefit for this patient population. 32,33 Moreover, off-pump CABG was not associated with improved outcomes in the present study. There are numerous factors that could be associated with mortality and readmission in elderly patients, including inherently subjective determinants such as measures of frailty, which have been associated with increased morbidity, mortality, and functional decline after cardiac surgery.…”

“…These findings are consistent with the trends reported in other countries. For example, octogenarians comprised 8.2% of a contemporary US population scheduled for isolated coronary surgery [7]. The recently observed plateau with further decline may be related to the rapid advances in non-surgical therapies, including implantation of drug-eluting stents and the implementation of newer anticoagulant and antiplatelet medications in combination with aggressive lipid-lowering therapy.…”

“…The debate concerning the superiority of OPCAB over CABG (and vice versa) has continued for many years [4,5]. Proponents of the OPCAB technique have advocated for its specific use in octogenarians since the beginning of this debate [6] and many studies continue to evaluate the potential benefit [7]. Evidence from meta-analyses indicates that utilizing the off-pump technique significantly reduces stroke, renal failure, ventilation time, atrial fibrillation, transfusion requirements, and postoperative length of stay when compared with conventional CABG using cardiopulmonary bypass [8,9].…”

“…Off‐pump CABG (OPCAB) eliminates the use of cardiopulmonary bypass, and so might benefit high‐risk patients or complex cases with concomitant disease 7 . However, whether OPCAB is better for octogenarian than conventional CABG remains controversial 7–10 . Both methods provide promising early and midterm results to octogenarians, once complete vascularization is achieved 10 .…”
