USE OF THE RADIAL ARTERY IN CORONARY SURGERY IN PATIENTS WITH MULTIVESSEL LESIONS OF THE CORONARY ARTERIES

Aim. To analyze literature data on the methods and methods of using the radial artery as an arterial graft for coronary artery bypass grafting in patients with multivessel coronary artery disease. Results. The literature data on ways and methods of arterial revascularization with the use of the radial artery in patients with multivessel coronary artery disease were reviewed and analyzed. Conclusions. Complete arterial revascularization with the use of the radial artery in patients with multivessel lesion of the coronary bed is a promising direction of coronary surgery and enables to achieve better long-term results
