Totally Endoscopic Coronary Artery Bypass (TECAB) Grafting

Definition

Totally endoscopic coronary artery bypass (TECAB) grafting is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to treat coronary artery disease by bypassing blocked coronary arteries. This technique involves the use of an endoscope and specialized instruments to perform the surgery through small incisions, resulting in reduced recovery time and less postoperative pain compared to traditional open-heart surgery.
