Abstract: Objectives To evaluate the early and mid-term follow-up outcomes of “one-stop” hybrid coronary revascularization strategy for patients with multivessel coronary artery disease. Methods From June 2007 to December 2009, 104 consecutive patients underwent “one-stop”hybrid coronary revascularization in Fu Wai Hospital. There were 93 male patients and 11 female patients with mean age of (61.8±10.2)years(ranging from 35 to 81 years). All the patients had multivessel coronary artery disease including left anterior descending (LAD)coronary artery stenosis, and underwent “one-stop”hybrid coronary revascularization. “One-stop”hybrid procedure was first performed through a lower partial sternotomy at the second left intercostal space. The distal anastomosis of in situ left internal mammary artery (LIMA)to LAD graft was completed. Angiography was performed immediately to confirm patency of the LIMA graft after closure of the thorax. A 300 mg loading dose of clopidogrel was administered through a nasogastric tube after confirmation of LIMA graft patency. Intravenous unfractionated heparin was administered to obtain an activated clotting time of greater than 250 s. Then percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)was performed on the non-LAD lesions. Results All the patients underwent“one-stop”hybrid coronary revascularization including grafted LIMA to LAD,and one hundred and ninety one drug eluting stents and three bare metal stents were used for other non-LAD lesions. No death event occurred during surgery and in hospital. All the patients were followed up for a mean duration of 1.5 years. There was no myocardial infarction, neurologic event or death occurred during follow-up except one patient with stent stenosis who was treated by PCI. Conclusion “One-stop” hybrid coronary revascularization is a feasible and safe alternative for patients with multivessel coronary artery disease.
