<br/><br/> The left internal thoracic artery (LITA) to left anterior descending artery (LAD) graft has become the standard of care in coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) after its long - term survival benefit has been demonstrated . The right internal thoracic artery (RITA) has characteristics similar to the LIMA . However , widespread utilization of the right internal thoracic artery (RITA) grafting was limited by its reduced length, that limited its use as an in - situ graft
