Abstract

AIM: In this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of the single aortic cross-clamp technique (SCT) (aortic cross-clamp only) versus the multiple-clamp technique (MCT) (aortic cross-clamp + side-biting clamp) on postoperative stroke in octogenarians undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). METHODS: = 83) received the MCT. Postoperative stroke was evaluated. RESULTS: > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Postoperative stroke in octogenarians may result from not only the cross-clamp technique used but also several other factors. We found that both techniques yielded similar outcomes.
