Left Anterior Descending Artery Endarterectomy by Hydrodissection

Complete revascularisation of a diffusely diseased left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery is best done by endarterectomy in conjunction with coronary artery bypass grafting. We describe a simple, effective, and safe technique of performing LAD endarterectomy by hydrodissection.
