Outcomes of "off-pump" coronary artery bypass grafting in a developing country : advantages over coronary artery bypass grafting on cardiopulmonary bypass

Includes abstract. === Includes bibliographic references (leaves 53-62). === Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB) was developed to avoid the deleterious effects of CPB. Current literature reveals some peri-operative advantages of OPCAB, with few studies detailing these in Africa. We revi...
