The pathophysiologic side effects of cardiopulmonary bypass have already been identified. Minimally invasive extracorporeal circulation technologies (MiECT) and off-pump coronary artery bypass graft surgery (OPCABG) aim to reduce these problems. This metaanalysis provides a comparison of MiECT and OPCABG in randomized and observational studies. A fully probabilistic, Bayesian approach of primary and secondary endpoints was conducted. MiECT does not give inferior results when compared with OPCABG. However, there is a trend to borderline significantly higher blood loss in this group in randomized controlled trials. The question whether MiECT is equivalent to OPCABG can be answered with the affirmative, but long-term follow-up data are needed to detect any advantage over time.
