Objective To summarize the experience of emergency coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG) on serious myocardium ischemia in early post CABG. Methods Between 1998 and 2002, emergency redo CABG was performed in 13 patients with serious early post operative myocardium ischemia. The causes included vein graft embolize(4 cases),uncompleted revascularize(3 cases), graft spasm(1 case) and anastomose stenosis or occlusion (5 cases). The grafts was 1 3(1.8±0.9) during redo CABG. Results There were 6 deaths, the mortality was 46%. The mean follow up was 31 months. There was no recurrence of angina. NYHA function was Ⅰ Ⅱ. Conclusion Emergency CABG is an important method in saving the patients with severe myocardium ischemia in early post CABG. The perioperative prevention and early treatment should be emphasized.
