Impact of Graft Strategies on the Outcome of Octogenarians Undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To analyse the outcome of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in octogenarians with coronary multivessel disease and the impact of different graft strategies and other factors.

Methods

Out of 1654 patients with multivessel disease who underwent CABG at our institution between January 2014 and March 2020, we investigated 225 consecutive patients with a median age of 82.1 years for survival prediction and need for coronary reintervention; a detailed outcome analysis was performed.

Results

At mean follow-up of 3.3 years, the overall survival was 76.4%. An indication for emergency operation (p = 0.002), age (p <0.001), chronic pulmonary disease (p = 0.024), and reduced renal or ventricular function (p <0.001) had the highest impact on limited survival. The comb
