Description
Summary:<p style="text-align: justify;">Hybrid coronary revascularization (HCR) combines minimally invasive left internal mammary artery to left anterior  descending  bypass with percutaneous coronary  intervention of non-left anterior descending vessels. And it is feasible and appeared to be safe, with faster recovery and similar outcomes when  compared  with  conventional  CABG  [1-4].  Also  Hybrid  coronary  revascularization  is  a  viable  option  to  perform  a  minimally  invasive,  functionally  complete  revascularization  in high-risk patients instead of conventional revascularization [5], robotic-assisted LITA harvesting and a small left anterior thoracotomy survival, freedom from angina and freedom from revascularization  also  appear  favorable  at  the  5-year  clinical  follow-up [6]. Closed chest hybrid revascularization is another although more complex option [7].<br></p>
