Highlights unresolved circulatory physiology after coronary surgery; leaves open human translation pending further study.
Operation for coronary artery disease was developed on dogs by Drs. Eugene Stanton, William Batiuchok, Eugene Leiter, Maurice Kim, and the authors of this paper.¹The developmental problems in the surgical technique, however, will not be discussed in this paper. This operation introduces new problems in the physiology of circulation in the heart, and the answers to some of these problems cannot be given at the present time. The operation is giving fresh impetus to the study of circulation in the heart. DESCRIPTION OF OPERATION The operation is done in two stages. The first stage consists in the placement of a free vein graft between the coronary sinus and the aorta. The second stage of the operation consists of partial ligation of the coronary sinus at the ostium of the sinus into the right auricle. The purpose of the operation is to deliver oxygenated blood into the myocardium. We have
