The cardiac revascularization procedure that bypasses a blockage in a coronary artery without stopping the heart is called off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB). In this technique, surgeons use specialized instruments to stabilize the heart and perform the bypass while it continues to beat. This approach minimizes the risks associated with cardiopulmonary bypass and can lead to quicker recovery times for patients.
Blockage of the coronary artery will result in a heart attack.
Quintuple Coronary artery bypass surgery.
We call this procedure a coronary bypass, or coronary bypass surgery.
A total blockage will cause the heart to stop from oxygen depletion, resulting in heartattack, and death.
narrowing or blockage (stenosis) in the coronary arteries, with narrowing greater than 50% considered significant
Coronary occlusive artery disease-- Blockage of the arteries that supply blood to the heart; frequently a precursor to a heart attack.
Coronary artery chronic total occlusion or CTO is a partial or total blockage of a coronary artery for a month or beyond. Coronary CTO is often caused by an accumulation of atherosclerotic plaque within the artery.
A finding of significant narrowing of the left main coronary artery and/or blockage or severe narrowing in the high, left anterior descending coronary artery.
occlusion
For most arteries there are no symptoms of partial blockage. Partial blockage of a coronary artery may result in chest pain upon exertion.
A blockage in one or more of the arteries supplying blood to the heart muscles.
Coronary artery bypass graft is the procedure done to provide the myocardium with a new source of blood supply when a coronary artery is occluded.
