Key result
Total arterial revascularization using bilateral mammary and right gastroepiploic arteries proves feasible in 9 patients.
Why the study?
Does total arterial revascularization using bilateral mammary and right gastroepiploic arteries provide safe and effective revascularization in patients with three-vessel disease and no available veins?

Does total arterial revascularization using bilateral mammary and right gastroepiploic arteries provide safe and effective revascularization in patients with three-vessel disease and no available veins?
Total arterial revascularization using bilateral mammary and right gastroepiploic arteries is a feasible and safe option for patients lacking suitable venous conduits.
Siclari et al. (1990) conducted an observational in Coronary three-vessel disease and disabling angina (n=9). Total arterial revascularization using right and left mammary arteries and right gastroepiploic artery was evaluated. Total arterial revascularization using bilateral mammary and right gastroepiploic arteries was feasible in 9 patients, with 8 surviving and demonstrating patent anastomoses at 7.7 months.
