Abstract

Aim: The use of radial artery (RA) graft was abandoned because of its muscular structure causing spasm problems. But by the widespread use of Ca^+^+ -canal blockers it become popular again. Following the IMA graft it is the second most prefered arterial graft. We aimed to search the usefullness of RA graft and the early-mid term results in female patients over 60 years age. Material and Methods: In this retrospective study n=32 were chosen randomly among (69$\pm$9 years) female coronary cases that radial arteries were used as graft. Postoperative control angiography were applied to all of the cases. Through the postoperative period the extremity were under control for wound healing and functioning. Results: The early and mid term angiographic patencies of radial artery grafts were the same with the young cases (100%). The mortality rate and reoperation rate were 0%, healing difficulties in graft area was lower than vein grafts n=2 (6.2%), hematoma was n=2 (6.2%). Since most of our patients were obeze the lower extremites comfort was found 100%. Conclusion: RA is a safe graft in elderly female because it is easy to prepare, the healing problems are less than vein graft, the postoperative extremity comfort is higher and early-mid term graft patency is complete.

Özet

Amaç: Radial arter (RA), muskularize yapı özelliği dolayisiyle postoperatif dönemde spazm sorunlarına yol açması nedeniyle bir dönem kullanımı terk edilmiş olmasına rağmen, Ca^+^+ -kanal blokerlerinin yaygın olarak kullanıma girmesi ile tekrar popüler olmuştur. İMA greftlerinden sonra en sık kullanılan ikinci arteryel greft durumundadır. Amacımız 60 yaş üzeri bayan hastalarda RA greftinin, greft seçimi sırasında uygunluğunu araştırmak, erken ve orta dönem sonuçlarını ortaya koymaktır. Gereç ve Yöntem: 69$\pm$9 yaş koroner arter by-pass cerrahisi uygulanan kadın hastalarda greft seçiminde RA tercih edilen randomize olarak seçilmiş 32 retrospektif hasta çalışmaya dahil edildi. Hastaların tümüne postoperatif kontrol anjiografisi yapıldı. Operasyon sonrası dönemde radial arter çıkarılan ekstremite yara iyileşmesi, kol fonksiyonları yönünden takip altında tutuldu. Bulgular: Erken ve orta dönem patensi anjiyografik değerlendirmede %100 olarak tespit edildi. Hastane mortalitesi, reoperasyon %0, greft alınan bölgedeki yara yeri enfeksiyon ve iyileşme problemi n=2 (%6.2), kolda hematom n=2 (%6.2), çoğunluğu obez olan 60 yaş üzeri türk kadın hasta popülasyonumuzda lipomatöz olan alt extremite konforunu %100 olarak tespit ettik. Sonuç: Hazırlama kolaylığı, safen ven grefte göre greft alınan bölge iyileşme problem azlığı, ameliyat sonu greft alınan ekstremite konfor yüksekliği, erken ve orta dönem greft açıklığı oranlarının tam olması, 60 yaş üzeri bayan hastalarda RA'i güvenle kullanılabilir bir greft yapmaktadır.
