Abstract

The pedicled left internal thoracic artery graft is the mandatory conduit in coronary artery bypass surgery. A grossly emphysematous lung may sometimes present a significant problem for positioning of the pedicled left internal thoracic artery conduit. An inverted pedicled left internal thoracic artery graft (internal thoracic artery transected near its origin, thus supplied by retrograde flow from superior epigastric and musculophrenic arteries) might occasionally be the conduit of choice for those patients.
