title: [Seventy-seven coronary reoperations: incidence, indication and results].
abstract: As the number of patients who have undergone primary myocardial revascularization continues to burgeon, the number of potential candidates for a secondary myocardial revascularization has increased gradually. The number of secondary CABG at the Cleveland Clinic were performed, which represents 18% of the total CABG. However, the number of secondary CABG at The Heart Institute of Japan were performed, which represents of 5-10% of the annual CABG. There was one operative death (1.3%). The graft patency rate was 92.8%. Including non-cardiac death, the actuarial survival rate at 10 years was 88.2%, and events free rate including all deaths, the third time CABG, PTCA and myocardial infarction was 78.4% at 10 years.
