Popis: For patients requiring emergency coronary artery revascularization, mortality remains high. One of the primary reasons is poor functional and metabolic recovery of the myocardium after ischemic arrest. We describe a hybrid of the off-pump and on-pump techniques to avoid ischemic arrest during coronary revascularization for this high-risk group.
