Koronarchirurgie – Literaturübersicht 2024
摘要
We systematically reviewed the cardiac surgery literature from 2024 in the field of coronary artery surgery and compiled a summary.
The literature from 2024 once again confirmed the excellent long-term results of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) compared to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in various scenarios. This provided further confirmation of the advantage of CABG observed in randomized studies. These findings were therefore also incorporated into the new guidelines for chronic coronary heart disease (CHD) in 2024. Of the studies two provided new perspectives for CABG: one showed that cardiac shock wave therapy in combination with CABG improves myocardial function in ischemic cardiomyopathy, while the other demonstrated the feasibility of computed tomography-guided CABG.
This article summarizes publications from the past year that we consider important and is therefore not free from subjective interpretation; however, it provides up to date information that may be helpful for patient-specific decision-making.
