He developed the cardiopulmonary bypass machine with the help of the IBM corporation. Thus began the present day surgical therapy of heart disease. 1953 Dr. Sven-Ivar Seldinger in Stockholm, Sweden developed the technique we use today to safely access arteries percutaneously. 1964 Dr. Vasilii Kolesov, a Russian surgeon, performs the first coronary artery bypass with suture technique. It was done using the internal thoracic artery (IMA) on a beating heart. 1968 Dr. Rene Favolaro publishes data on 171 patients he performed coronary artery bypass grafting at Cleveland Clinic, using principally SVGs. With advances in bypass pump technology, CABG flourishes for the next decade, as the only treatment for patients with chronic stable angina. Milestones in the Care of Cardiovascular Disease 1958 Dr. Mason Sones, a Pediatric Cardiologist at Cleveland Clinic, accidentally performs the first coronary angiogram of the RCA when performing an aortic root angiogram.
