Mild anastomotic stenosis in patient-specific CABG model may enhance graft patency: a new hypothesis.

Mild anastomotic stenosis in patient-specific CABG model may enhance graft patency: a new hypothesis.

It is well known that flow patterns at the anastomosis of coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) are complex and may affect the long-term patency. Various attempts at optimal designs of anastomosis have not improved long-term patency. Here, we hypothesize that mild anastomotic stenosis (area stenosis o...
