    AbstractCABG with all arterial grafts using both the internal thoracic artery (RITA, LITA), the right gastroepiploic artery (GEA) and the inferior epigastric artery (IEA) was performed in 26 patients from July 1989 to August 1991. There were no early and late deaths. Early postoperative coronary angiography in all patients revealed that the best choice of anastomosis was RITA to LAD, LITA to LCX or DIA, and GEA to RCA (type A). All arterial grafts CABG is safe and feasible, but the saphenus vein graft must be used to avoid the anastomosis from small GEA to small LCX.
