Long-Term Outcome of Patients Undergoing Minimally Invasive Direct Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery: A Single-Center Experience

Conclusions Within the limitations imposed by retrospective analyses, our study demonstrates excellent long-term outcome in patients undergoing minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass with or without hybrid revascularization. For isolated left anterior descending artery disease minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass should be considered, whereas hybrid revascularization (percutaneous coronary intervention and minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass) should be considered for multivessel disease.
