Key Points

To evaluate the impact of persistent RIMA side branches on ischemia after CABG surgery.
Observational study among CABG patients
Assessment of RIMA branches and their effects on ischemia
Analysis of recurrent angina cases
Identified link between RIMA branches and ischemia post-CABG
Chronic angina episodes reported in patients with unligated RIMA branches

Implication

Observational insights into recurrent angina linked to coronary steal syndrome in CABG patients, suggesting need for RIMA evaluation.
