Abstract
- We performed a hybrid procedure for a 58-year-old man with coronary artery disease and a left subclavian artery stenosis. He underwent left subclavian artery stenting and off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery, including grafting the in situ left internal mammary artery to the left anterior descending coronary artery. The post-operative coronary angiogram and computed tomography showed good patency of the graft and stent. He discharged at postoperative 8 days and he has been followed up for six month with an excellent clinical condition.
