Abstract
Cardiac surgeons are increasingly faced with a more complex patient who has developed a pattern of diffuse coronary artery disease that cannot be completely revascularized by CAGB alone. Considering the increased operative and long-term cardiac risks predicted by incomplete revascularization, and the documented operative and long-term benefits associated with sole therapy and adjunctive TMR in randomized patients with diffuse coronary artery disease, increased use of sole therapy and adjunctive TMR therapy is warranted.
