ABSTRACT:
An obstructed coronary artery is bypassed by forming a first blood flow path from a left ventricle of the heart to a coronary vein associated with the obstructed coronary artery. A second blood flow path is formed form the obstructed coronary artery to the right ventricle for blood to flow from the left ventricle through the coronary vein to the myocardium and subsequently through the coronary artery to the right ventricle in a blood flow direction opposite a normal blood flow direction in the coronary artery and coronary vein.
