Borys Todurov, Alexander Bitsa

Abstract

The latest literature review on application of intracoronary shunts in anastomoses for myocardial revascularization in patients with coronary heart disease has been presented here. Advantages of the use of this technique (continuous myocardial perfusion, improved anastomosis location visualization, unlimited time for bypassing), which minimize any possible complications have been analyzed.
