Summary

The purpose of the study is to compare two surgical strategies for coronary artery bypass grafting with respect to the occurrence of cerebral infarctions made visible by magnetic resonance imaging

Conditions

Interventions

PROCEDURE

OBCAB (Off Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting)

OPCAB with sparing of aortic manipulation (eg, no aortic cannulation for cardiopulmonary bypass, no aortic cross-clamp, no side-clamping of the aorta). Graft anastomosis to the central circulation with y-grafts on the arteria thoracica interna or on the aorta with help of the Heart-string-system (Guidant)

PROCEDURE

CABG (coronary artery bypass grafting)

conventional CABG with cardiopulmonary bypass
