Currently coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is the most commonly used procedure for revascularization of coronary heart disease. However it may not be suitable for the patients with diffuse coronary artery diseases. Under this circumstance, retrograde perfusion via cardiac venous system, namely retrograde coronary venous bypass graft (CVBG), may be the proper therapeutic selection.1 The idea of myocardial revascularization by means of grafting the coronary venous system is more than a century old. However, few clinical trials and long-term outcome data have been presented. The use of venous arterialization has not been widely used. We report the use of a sequential saphenous vein graft from the aorta to middle cardiac vein in a patient with diffuse lesions in right coronary artery during off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery (OPCAB).
