Summary:Although percutaneous interventions in the context of perioperative coronary artery surgery ischaemic complications are not unusual, this type of secondary revascularisation is rarely addressed in the literature. Information on aspects such as complications and clinical outcome is limited, in spite of this being a high-risk population. To shed light on the subject, the present article presents a systematic review of the literature on this topic, along with the analysis of the institutional experience at a centre with high surgical and percutaneous revascularisation case volume.
