NCT01051986

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare early and 1-year graft patency rates of saphenous vein composite grafts with those of right internal thoracic artery composite graft and mid-term clinical outcomes in patients who undergo off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting(OPCAB). We also evaluate microscopic findings of saphenous vein graft harvested no touch technique and used as composite graft.

Study Arms (2)

SVG group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

patients who underwent off-pump coronary artery bypass using saphenous vein composite grafting based on the left internal thoracic artery use saphenous vein as a composite graft connected to the left internal thoracic artery

Procedure: saphenous vein composite grafting

Limitations and Caveats

the current study is not a multicenter "all-comers" study, although it is a prospective, randomized, controlled trial. The 1-year graft patency rates and clinical outcomes of 34 months do not provide sufficient data to reach a definite conclusion
