  • Abstract
    We report healing of the intimal dissection of an internal thoracic artery graft. Triple coronary artery bypass grafting was performed using left internal thoracic artery and saphenous vein grafts. One month after operation, the intimal dissection of the internal thoracic artery graft was clearly visible by coronary angiography; however, after 1 year of only medical treatment consisting of warfarin, ticlopidine, and nitrate, the intimal dissection was undetectable by coronary angiography.
