LIMA to LAD grafting returns patient survival to age-matched population: 20-year outcomes of MIDCAB surgery

Figure 1:. Number of minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass grafting operations performed within study period stratified by year (note: 2020 January–August only).

Figure 2:. Overall survival after minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass grafting. Survival at 5, 10, 15 and 20 years was 91.9%, 84.7%, 71.3% and 56.5%.

Figure 3:. Overall survival after minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass grafting stratified by patients who underwent a hybrid procedure (minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass + percutaneous coronary intervention) compared to patients who underwent minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass only.

Figure 4:. Overall survival after minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass grafting stratified by patients with single-vessel disease (left anterior descending artery only) compared to patients with multivessel disease.

Figure 5:. Overall survival of isolated left anterior descending artery patients who underwent minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass compared to the expected survival among an age/gender/year matched sample of a reference population.

Figure 6:. Overall survival of multivessel patients who underwent minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass compared to the expected survival among an age/gender/year matched sample of a reference population.
