Myocaridal revascularization surgery is the most common of the heart surgeries and one of the greatest achievements attained in surgery. Its history may be divided into 4 stages. The ideas related to it appeared at the end of the XIX century and had a quick development in the XX century. As many of the discoveries of mankind and medicine, heart surgery and myocardial revascularization have disputed paternities and controvertible dates. A bibliographic review of their development and advances, as well as of some aspects of extracorporeal circulation, myocardial protection and heart surgery in general, which are necessary for their progress, was made.

Palabras clave : Myocardial revascularization surgery; heart surgery; myocardial revascularization.
