Off-pump bilateral internal thoracic artery grafting - surgical technique.

Numerous coronary revascularization studies have documented superior results associated with bilateral internal thoracic artery grafting compared with single internal thoracic artery grafting. However, concerns about perioperative complications and the technical challenges inherent in bilateral grafting limit its broad utilization. In this video tutorial we show our routine technique for off-pump bilateral internal thoracic artery grafting, and also discuss the experience of our department and the evolving process of how we have performed myocardial revascularization over the past two decades.
