Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting is now becoming the preferred method of coronary revascularization. The trend is towards complete revascularization, preferably arterial. We are describing here a method of multivessel, total arterial, complete revascularization via an anterolateral thoracotomy approach in 27 patients. There was an average of 3.2 grafts/patient. Angiograms were performed in 9 patients (33.33 %). There were no operative mortalities. None of the patients required conversion to cardiopulmonary bypass or midsternotomy.
