Summary
Internal thoracic arteries can be harvested in skeletonized or pedicled technique. Latest research has posed a potential adverse effect of skeletonizing the internal thoracic arteries on graft patency rates and clinical outcome. Prospective, randomized, multi-centre trials are necessary to investigate the impact of harvesting technique of left internal thoracic artery (LITA) on graft patency rates and clinical outcome after coronary artery bypass grafting. The HARVITA trial compares skeletonized and pedicled harvesting technique of LITA regarding graft patency rates and patient survival.
