Two-stage Minimally Invasive Direct Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting in a Cancer Patient: LITA-LAD Bypass and Concomitant Transabdominal GEA-PD Bypass and Right-sided Colectomy

Abstract

A patient who had previously undergone coronary artery bypass grafting presented to our institution with severe coronary insufficiency and colon cancer. We performed two-stage minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass grafting and simultaneous colectomy. The operative technique is detailed, and justification of the two-stage procedure and simultaneous approach in such patients is discussed.
