Figure 3

Left internal mammary artery-saphenous vein bridge strategy. The in situ left internal mammary artery (LIMA) and a saphenous vein bridge are used compositely to distribute the LIMA flow to the anterolateral territory. A magnified detail of the distal anastomoses is provided in the left upper corner of the figure. The distal portion of the LIMA pedicle has been graphically removed in order to present a better view of the distal anastomosis. LAD, left anterior descending coronary artery; SV, saphenous vein.
