Preoperative Stroke and Outcomes after Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery
Conclusions: The authors found no evidence that more recent preoperative stroke predisposed patients undergoing CABG surgery to suffer postoperative stroke, death, or prolonged length of stay. The combination of prior stroke and myocardial infarction substantially increased perioperative risk.

Anesthetic and Technical Considerations in Redo Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery Using Sternal-Sparing Approaches
REOPERATIVE CORONARY ARTERY bypass grafting (CABG) has decreased significantly in the previous 20 years, likely because of the increased availability of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Reoperative surgery using the classic trans-sternal approach is more technically challenging than primary surgery and is associated with an increased risk of major complications and death. There is an increased risk of injury to patent bypass grafts, the great vessels, and right ventricle during sternal re-entry. Manipulation of the aorta or diseased bypass grafts can precipitate embolization and cause stroke or myocardial infarcti...
