Abstract
The prevalence of atherosclerosis and availability of the right gastroepiploic artery graft in patients undergoing isolated coronary artery bypass grafting was 12.3% and 88.2%, respectively. Older age (≥65 years), insulin-treated diabetes mellitus, and chronic renal failure were identified as independent predictors for the atherosclerotic right gastroepiploic artery.
