division of time frame post op CABG complications
- early= <1 mo
| - late = >1 mo
131
grafts mC used in CABG
- saphenous v = #1
- internal mammary a=#2
- radial a, IMA,
132
arterial vs venous CABG grafts
Venous grafts have demonstrated a tendency to develop partial or complete occlusions with time, whereas arterial grafts have shown relative resis- tance to plaque formation and obstruction. How- ever, arterial conduits are more limited in their availability and ease of procurement compared with venous grafts, specifically the saphenous vein. Therefore, saphenous vein grafts (SVGs) remain the most commonly used conduits.
133
etiology of venous CABG graft complications
Early graft occlusion is primarily due to vascular damage that can occur at surgery, whereas vessel wall changes resulting from expo- sure to systemic blood pressure may predispose to occlusion in later stages.
134
general localization of grafts
A right SVG (a) is attached to the anterior aorta proximally and to the posterior de- scending artery distally. A left SVG (b) has an altered appearance because it is attached to the aorta with an aortic connector device (arrow); the origin of this SVG is moved laterally to prevent kinking. A typical left IMA graft (c) is left intact at its origin and grafted to the LAD artery distally.
135
early graft complications
