It represents an evolution of current techniques associated with new technologic devices, that allow a safe and effective procedure associated to an aesthetic benefit.\n\nInvasive treatment of coronary artery disease has been on a plateau lately. Percutaneous treatment that emerged as a promise to replace surgical methods, has already shown its limitations, even with the use of drug-eluting stents. Traditional CABG (coronary artery bypass grafting surgery), which has been considered the gold standard, has been criticized for its high degree of invasiveness.\n\nBased on this precept, interest has emerged in creating a surgical approach that causes less trauma. Surgical access using minimally invasive incisions are gaining space and have shown less postoperative pain, shorter hospital stays, earlier mobilization and functional recovery, in addition to reducing the costs of the procedure.\n\nCardiac surgery has some challenges that are beyond other specialties. The heart is a vital organ with intrinsic chronotropism that lies inside a rigid rib cage.\n\nSpecifically, in coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG), the thin caliber of the coronaries and their distribution throughout the cardiac territories creates even a greater challenge. However, new surgical techniques associated with new devices, demonstrated the viability of complete revascularization through a limited access incision.\n\nIn an attempt to minimize surgical trauma and the morbidities caused by conventional median sternotomy and the use of On Pump surgery, some alternatives have emerged with promising results.\n\nAmong those efforts, we can highlight the beginning of the coronary artery grafting surgery without the use of cardiopulmonary bypass (Off Pump CABG), followed by hybrid revascularization, minimally invasive surgery by lateral thoracotomy under direct vision, partially assisted robot surgery and fully endoscopic surgery with using robots.\n\nCurrently, minimally invasive surgery though mini lateral thoracotomy is the most common technique used. Initially it was used only for the treatment of the left anterior descending artery (LAD), but technology advances and surgical improvement allowed complete revascularization under direct vision. Surgery can be performed with or without the aid of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), treatment individualization is necessecary for every case.\n\nThis is a pilot study to evaluate the safety and feasibility of Minimally Invasive Coronary Artery Bypass surgery in selected patients ,with multi vessel coronary disease.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Patients 18-years-old or older\n* Isolated myocardial revascularization procedure\n* Double or Triple-vessel disease with proximal or mid LAD disease with angiographic diameter stenosis \\> 70% by visual analysis in all territories, requiring myocardial revascularization OR proximal LAD disease with angiographic diameter stenosis 50-70% by visual analysis in any territory but with invasive or non-invasive evidence of flow-limiting stenosis in all three territories, requiring myocardial revascularization\n* Total SYNTAX score \\> 22 or low Syntax score unsuitable for PCI\n* Clinical and anatomic eligibility for both Minimally invasive and Conventional CABG surgery as agreed to by surgical team.\n* Silent ischemia, stable angina, unstable angina or recent MI\n\n \\- If recent MI, cardiac biomarkers must have returned to normal prior to randomization\n* Ability to sign informed consent and comply with all study procedures\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Reoperation\n* Need for any concomitant cardiac surgery other than CABG (e.g. valve surgery, aortic repair, etc.), or intent that if the patient randomizes to surgery, any cardiac surgical procedure other than isolated CABG will be performed\n* Left ventricle disfunction (EF\\<40%)\n* Chronic Pulmonary obstructive disease\n* Renal failure disease\n* Emergency surgery\n* Obesity\n* Sternum anatomic defects including pectus excavatum\n* Peripheral vascular disease\n* Ascending aorta severe calcification\n* Non cardiac co-morbidities with life expectancy less than 1 year'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT06794359', 'acronym': 'MINICABG', 'briefTitle': 'Minimally Invasive Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery in Patients With Multi Vessel Coronary Disease', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'University of Sao Paulo General Hospital'}, 'officialTitle': 'Minimally Invasive Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery: Prospective and Randomized Study to Validate the Minimally Invasive Approach Through Left Anterior Mini Thoracotomy in Patients With Milti Vessel Coronary Disease', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'CAAE 54175921.8.0000.0068'}, 'secondaryIdInfos': [{'id': '2021/11947-5', 'type': 'OTHER_GRANT', 'domain': 'FAPESP'}]}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Minimally Invasive Coronary Artery Bypass', 'description': 'Experimental: Minimally Invasive Coronary Artery Bypass will be performed in a through left anterior mini thoracotomy.
