Hybrid coronary revascularization consists of left internal thoracic artery (LITA) graft to the left anterior descending (LAD) artery and transcatheter revascularization of the non-LAD stenosis in specific settings to achieve complete coronary revasc...
This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility and the mid-term efficacy of an in situ skeletonized right internal mammary artery (IMA) bypass grafting to a left anterior descending artery (LAD), and to determine risk factors for IMA graft failure in a...

In minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass surgery (MIDCAB), internal mammary artery harvesting is not so easy because of small exposure and difficult maneuver for long distant target vessel. To expose and harvest left internal mammary arter...

Since 2014, we have used the da Vinci surgical system to perform internal thoracic artery harvest in minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass (MIDCAB), and since 2016, we have also performed robot-assisted cardiac surgery( RACS) for mitral an...
OBJECTIVE: Transit time flow measurement (TTFM) is valuable for assessing intraoperative graft patency in coronary artery bypass surgery (CAB). The significance of competitive native coronary flow on patency, as predicted by percentage of backflow (%...
In the existing patency prediction model of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), the characteristics are based on graft flow, but no researchers selected hemodynamic factors as the characteristics. The purpose of this paper is to study whether the...
OBJECTIVE: Previous studies have shown that women carry a higher risk of morbidity and mortality after coronary artery bypass surgery. We investigated gender differences in risk factors and outcomes in our patients undergoing robotic beating heart co...
