Abstract
In animal experiments the right internal mammary artery was implanted into the outflow tract of the right ventricle during performance of left mammary artery implantation with epicardiectomy and free omental graft. The effect of double mammary artery implantation operation was tested by triple coronary artery ameroid constriction in 24 animals. In 20 animals studied both implanted arteries remained open and had commenced to bud and branch at the time of examination. The double implant operation is still an experimental procedure.
