Our proposal for composite grafts was not to perform anastomoses on the LITA but to perform anastomoses of the radial artery on the anterior interventricular artery, thereby directly irrigating the anterior interventricular artery and also the oblique and marginal branches of the circumflex artery

figure 1 shows the aspect of the composite graft of the internal thoracic artery with the radial artery, which was anastomosed in the anterior interventricular artery, oblique artery, marginal 1 artery and marginal 2 artery, sequentially.
