[INTERVENTIONAL AND SURGICAL TREATMENT OF THE ANGINA PECTORIS RECURRENCE AFTER CORONARY SHUNTING OPERATION]

Area of Science:

• Cardiovascular Surgery
• Interventional Cardiology
• Cardiac Surgery Outcomes

Background:

• Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is a common procedure for coronary artery disease.
• Recurrence of angina pectoris after CABG necessitates further intervention.
• Evaluating reoperation strategies is crucial for long-term patient management.

Purpose of the Study:

• To assess the efficacy of reoperation in patients with recurrent angina pectoris post-CABG.
• To compare surgical and interventional approaches for reoperation.
• To analyze outcomes based on repeated coronaroventriculography and shuntography.

Main Methods:

• Retrospective analysis of 134 patients who underwent CABG between 2005-2014.
• Inclusion of patients with recurrent angina pectoris.
• Review of data from repeated coronaroventriculography and shuntography.

Main Results:

• Reoperation was indicated for patients with angina recurrence.
• Analysis confirmed the efficacy of both surgical and interventional reoperation methods.
• Data from repeated imaging supported the effectiveness of interventions.

Conclusions:

• Reoperation is a viable and effective strategy for managing recurrent angina post-CABG.
• Both surgical and interventional techniques demonstrate positive outcomes in reoperation.
• Coronarography and shuntography are essential for evaluating reoperation success.
