The leading place among cardiovascular diseases in the world – 50% – belongs to the ischaemic heart disease. Coronary bypass grafting is the golden standard for treatment of patients with multivessel ischaemic heart disease. The modern level of coronary surgery makes it possible to perform safe and efficacious direct revascularisation with hospital lethality not exceeding 1-3%. This article presents a review of literature devoted to the history of coronary surgery development including analysis of relevant sources dated 2010-2020 published in PubMed and Google Scholar databases: from first experimental procedures in the beginning of the 20th century and indirect myocardial revascularisation methods to direct bypass grafting of the impaired heart vessels actively developed since early 1960s. The article describes types of grafts applied with description of advantages and disadvantages of each one as well as contemporary methods and conditions for coronary bypass grafting and further prospects in development of ischaemic heart disease surgery.
