[Experience of coronary artery bypass grafting on the beating heart with right heart bypass; 3 cases of octogenarian].

Abstract

Right heart bypass (RHB) yields more stable hemodynamics by increasing left ventricular preload and collapse right ventricular chamber during the displacement of the heart on beating heart coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Recently beating heart CABG gaining popularity, and the indications for CABG have increasingly expanded to elderly person. Using RHB while exposing posterior branches by displacing the beating heart, we have attempted to make total revascularization in beating heart CABG. We performed beating heart CABG with RHB in 3 cases of octogenarian. All patients had left main trunk lesion and needed revascularization of posterior vessels. Introduction of RHB enabled us to approach to posterior target vessels in better exposure and under greater hemodynamic stability. All three patients had no complications postoperatively. Strictly speaking CABG with RHB is not off-pump CABG, but RHB system does not include either artificial lung or manipulation of the aorta. Therefore we think it is very effective support system which enables multiple coronary revascularization for elderly person.
