Review of coronary-subclavian steal following internal mammary artery-coronary artery bypass surgery.
The syndrome of coronary-subclavian steal through an internal mammary artery graft following coronary artery bypass grafting is rare. We are aware of only eight cases reported in the world literature. The cases of these 8 patients are reviewed, and the case of the ninth patient is described. All patients but 1 have been successfully managed by subclavian-carotid artery bypass.
