There were 19 men, 13 women and a mean age was 57.8 years[range from 46 to 68]. The involved risk factors were as follows: smoking 15 cases, hypertension 14 cases, diabetic mellitus 6 cases, cholesterol[>240mg/dl] 13 cases, and triglyceride[>180mg/dl] 11 cases. The preoperative clinical status were chronic stable angina 4 cases, unstable angina 24 cases and myocardial infarction 4 cases. At angiogram, numbers that involved in coronary artery of narrowing more than 50% luminal diameter were 54 vessels[left anterior descending 30, right coronary artery 17, circumflex 7]. We performed 53 grafts in32 patients, average was 1.7 grafts per patient, 16 patients were single bypass, 11 patients were double bypass and 5 patients were triple bypass.
