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 COMPARATORpatients 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
RITA group
ACTIVE COMPARATORpatient who underwent off-pump coronary artery bypass using right internal thoracic artery composite grafting based on the left internal thoracic artery use right internal thoracic artery as a composite graft connected to the left internal thoracic artery
Interventions
use saphenous vein as a composite graft connected to the left internal thoracic artery
right internal thoracic artery is used as a composite graft connected to the left internal thoracic artery

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
