Methods: All data related to patients who underwent on‐pump beating‐heart coronary artery bypass grafting at our center for three consecutive years were collected. These patients were classified into two groups: isolated bypass grafts or combined with aortic valve replacement. All data related to preoperative characteristics, procedural characteristics, and clinical outcomes are presented separately for the two groups. Results: During the study period, 175 patients underwent on‐pump beating‐heart bypass grafting alone and 32 combined with aortic valve replacement. Despite higher than average Euroscore in both groups, mortality, and morbidity were satisfactory while the rate of complete revascularization was higher than previously reported for classic off-pump surgery. Conclusion: On‐pump beating heart coronary artery bypass grafting offers an excellent alternative in the surgical treatment of coronary artery disease. Patient selection is very important, and in the hands of skilled surgeons, it may prevent intraoperative complications and offer the appropriate revascularization, especially for high-risk patients.
