Abstract
Although multiarterial grafting or bilateral mammary artery use is being increasingly
emphasized for contemporary coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) practice, saphenous
vein graft (SVG) is still the most frequently used CABG conduit, and it accounts for
80% of all CABG conduits. Research focusing on modifiable surgical factors such as
anastomosis technique, however, is scarce. This study aimed to compare clinical outcomes
and graft patency according to anastomosis methods of vein grafting.
