Minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass is preferred due to its less invasive nature; however, it carries the risk of graft failure owing to inherent technical challenges. We present a case where minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass grafting was performed and graft failure was detected via coronary angiography 3 days post-operation. Successful percutaneous coronary intervention was subsequently performed on the failed graft itself to salvage myocardial cellular damage. Consequently, the combination of minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass and percutaneous coronary intervention, both less-invasive revascularization approaches, effectively achieved the primary treatment objective.
