Abstract
All-arterial revascularization is associated with significantly better 12-year survival compared with the standard single ITA with saphenous vein CABG operation, in particular for triple-vessel disease patients. The completeness of revascularization of the underlying coronary disease is critical for maximizing the long-term benefits of arterial-only grafting.
