[Long-term results of coronary revascularization--clinical, angiographic and hemodynamic findings (author's transl)].
Clinical angiographic, and hemodynamic examinations were performed in 37 patients (mean age 54 +/- 6.5 years) with coronary heart disease 5.4 +/- 5.3 months and 57.0 +/- 15.3 months after coronary revascularisation. The results were compared with those of a preoperatively performed examination (8.1 +/- 5.9 months). Early postoperatively 57 per cent of the patients were free of angina and 32 per cent had marked relief, whereas preoperatively 73 per cent had severe angina (class III and class IV). Late postoperatively 51 per cent had no angina and 49 per cent had only slight or moderate angina. The patency rate of the aorto-coronary bypass grafts was 90 percent early and 83 per cent late postoperatively. Occlusions of the native coronary arteries proximal to the anastomosis were found in 26 per cent preoperatively, in 55 per cent early and in 84 per cent late postoperatively. The parameters of left ventricular function showed no significant alterations early and late postoperatively. The results demonstrate that the relief of angina, the patency rate of the aorto-coronary bypass grafts and the resting function of the left ventricle are approximately unchanged five years after coronary revascularisation.
