Abstract
Sequential bypass (SB) is an effective method of implementing complete myocardial revascularization of complex coronary stenoses. The SB allows a single graft to be used for bypass in several locations, which facilitates multi-branch revascularization. We have developed a simple SB technique, four-stitch side-to-side anastomosis, and report its clinical effectiveness in 428 patients.
