The Current Situation and Progress of Minimally Invasive Integrated Coronary Revascularization / 中国微创外科杂志

ABSTRACT

[Summary] Minimally invasive hybrid coronary revascularization ( MIHCR) represents a minimally invasive revascularization strategy that combines coronary artery bypass graft ( CABG) surgery with percutaneous coronary intervention ( PCI) .Although MIHCR is better than coronary artery bypass graft surgery in theory , there is no useful randomized controlled trial to prove the advantage of MIHCR in recent medical papers .In this paper , we reviewed different aspects of MIHCR , such as basic definitions , basic rationale , indications , operation selection and current problems .
