We report about a 71-year-old man with coronary artery double-vessel disease who received minimally invasive coronary artery bypass grafting through a 9-cm left lateral chest incision in the third intercostal space. Both mammary arteries were harvested either directly (left internal mammary artery) or thoracoscopically (right internal mammary artery) and anastomosed to the left anterior descending artery and the circumflex artery through this single left lateral chest incision. The postoperative course was uneventful, and the patient was discharged on postoperative day 5.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007387 Internal Mammary-Coronary Artery Anastomosis Direct myocardial revascularization in which the internal mammary artery is anastomosed to the right coronary artery, circumflex artery, or anterior descending coronary artery. The internal mammary artery is the most frequent choice, especially for a single graft, for coronary artery bypass surgery.

D008297 Male Males
D002315 Cardiopulmonary Bypass Diversion of the flow of blood from the entrance of the right atrium directly to the aorta (or femoral artery) via an oxygenator thus bypassing both the heart and lungs.

D003327 Coronary Disease An imbalance between myocardial functional requirements and the capacity of the CORONARY VESSELS to supply sufficient blood flow. It is a form of MYOCARDIAL ISCHEMIA (insufficient blood supply to the heart muscle) caused by a decreased capacity of the coronary vessels.

D004724 Endoscopy Procedures of applying ENDOSCOPES for disease diagnosis and treatment. Endoscopy involves passing an optical instrument through a small incision in the skin i.e., percutaneous; or through a natural orifice and along natural body pathways such as the digestive tract; and/or through an incision in the wall of a tubular structure or organ, i.e. transluminal, to examine or perform surgery on the interior parts of the body.
