264 * results of total arterial versus conventional versus hybrid myocardial revascularisation: a propensity match analysis of long-term follow-up

Conclusion: Total arterial revascularisation provides improved outcomes at mid-term follow-up compared with conventional or hybrid revascularisation. The latter technique is particularly associated with a significantly higher incidence of late myocardial infarction and repeat revascularisation.
