The strategy for post coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) was investigated in patients with graft stenosis.The study included 123 post-CABG patients with graft stenosis. The patients were divided into three groups according to target vessels; saphenous vein graft (SVG; n = 72), internal mammary artery (IMA; n = 21) and native coronary artery (n = 30). Furthermore, SVG lesions were divided into proximal anastomosis (n = 23), body (n = 40) and distal anastomosis (n = 9). The procedural success rate and late patency rate were compared between the three groups. Furthermore, the relationships between pre percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) percentage diameter stenosis, procedural success rate and late patency rate were evaluated.Procedural success rate was similar in the three groups, but late patency rate was higher in the IMA group. Procedural success rate and late patency rate were significantly lower in proximal anastomoses compared to other sites of SVG stenoses, IMA group and native coronary artery group (p0.05). Totally occluded native coronary artery lesions had a high procedural success rate compared with occluded IMA and SVG lesions, but the late patency rate was not higher. Procedural success rate showed no significant difference for 75-99% stenotic lesions, but the late patency rate was significantly higher in the IMA group (p0.05). Patients in the stenting group had a greater late patency rate compared with the balloon angioplasty group. There was no significant difference in late patency rate between the IMA group and SVG group.Late patency rate of the IMA is higher than that of the native coronary artery. SVG with proximal anastomosis and severe stenosis shows a significantly lower late patency rate than the native coronary artery. Therefore, PTCA should be considered for the native coronary artery in the absence of chronic total occlusion. |
