A method for revascularization of circumflex marginal coronary arteries.
The transverse sinus route for bypassing high marginal circumflex coronary arteries facilitates the operation and obviates potential kinking sites at the left atrial appendage and pericardial reflection over the pulmonary veins. The vein bypass emerges from the transverse sinus and closely parallels the marginal circumflex coronary vessels.
