The OBJECTIVE of the study was to assess the immediate results of the use of two internal thoracic arteries during coronary bypass surgery. MATERIAL AND METHODS . 200 patients with coronary artery disease underwent coronary artery bypass grafting in Samara cardiology dispensary from 2016 to 2018. Patients were divided into 2 groups. Group 1 (100 people) used both internal thoracic arteries (ITA) and the radial artery as conduits; group 2 (100 people) used the left ITA and the great saphenous vein as conduits. The duration of the operation, complications in the early postoperative period, and hospital mortality were evaluated. RESULTS . Groups (1 – 73 % of men, average age (59±12) years, average number of conduits – (3.1±0.4), 2 – 62 % of men, average age (67±7) years, average number of conduits – (3.3±0.6)) were significantly different only in age. The average duration of the operation in the group 1 was (174±25) min, in 2 – (165±18) min (p 0.05). The number of complications in the early postoperative period did not have a statistically significant difference between the groups. CONCLUSION . Bilateral internal thoracic arteries coronary artery bypass grafting in CHD patients did not lead to a significant increase in the duration of the operation, an increase in mortality and infectious complications from the sternum, compared with single internal thoracic arteries grafting.
