pubmed:abstractText
Perioperative and early postoperative flow reduction of a left internal thoracic artery conduit is a rare complication of myocardial revascularization and may lead to the potentially fatal left internal thoracic artery hypoperfusion syndrome. It has been advocated that an additional vein graft be placed to the distal left anterior descending artery to provide sufficient myocardial perfusion. Some evidence exists, however, that this high-flow vein might lead to competing or even backward flow through the internal thoracic artery.
