The surgical risk of bilateral internal mammary artery grafting was analyzed in 100 successive patients separated chronologically into two groups. These groups were not statistically different in terms of age, severity of angina, and extent of coronary artery disease. The number of grafts per patient and the time of aortic cross clamping were not statistically different in the two groups. The postoperative mortality was 1% in the 100 patients. The incidence of perioperative myocardial infarction was not statistically different in the two groups. No mediastinal suppuration was observed. The mean postoperative hemorrhage was 633 +/- 558 ml in the first 50 patients and 560 +/- 410 ml for the last 50 patients (p < 0.05). The percentage of patients receiving no homologous blood transfusion was 64% in the first 50 patients and 94% in the last 50 patients. The percentage of phrenic palsy was 36% in the first 50 patients and 6% in the last 50 patients (p < 0.05). With surgical experience, the risk of coronary bypass with bilateral internal mammary artery was lowered and very similar to the surgical risk of conventional aorto-coronary bypass with saphenous veins or one mammary artery.
