    • Abstract:
      Research conducted at Nara Medical University in Japan has provided updated information on the use of the right internal thoracic artery graft in on- and off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting procedures. The study highlights the advantages of using internal thoracic artery grafts over saphenous vein grafts in coronary artery bypass surgery. The research emphasizes the importance of selecting the appropriate method of using the right internal thoracic artery based on the patient's condition, target vessels, and surgical experience. Additionally, the study suggests that skeletonized harvesting may be more effective in preventing sternal wound infections when using bilateral internal thoracic arteries in coronary artery bypass grafting.
