1 The “ω-Anastomosis”: a new revascularization technique for coronary bifurcations 
Massimo Bonacchi, MD, Edvin Prifti, MD, PhD, Gabriele Giunti, MD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 76, Issue 3, Pages (September 2003) DOI: /S (02)

2 Fig 1 The schematic presentation of the “ω-anastomosis” construction. (A) The longitudinal incision of the main coronary vessel extended to both coronary branches beyond the bifurcation. (B) The distal extremity of the arterial graft is effectively tailored to obtain a bipetalous shape. (C) Anastomosis completion. (X = length of the vertical arterial graft incision; Y = length of one of the constructed arterial graft’s petalus; Z = wideness of one of the graft’s petalus.) The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (02) )

3 Fig 2 Postoperative coronary angiography. (A) “ω-anastomosis” constructed with the radial artery of the bifurcation of the obtuse marginal artery and terminal circumflex artery. (B) “ω-anastomosis” constructed with the left internal mammary artery at the bifurcation of the second diagonal branch and left anterior descending artery.
