Combined coronary artery bypass grafting and other heart surgical procedures——Clinical Analysis of Consecutive 134 cases / 介入放射学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To retrospectively review clinical results of combined coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and other heart surgical procedures.Methods Combined CABG and other heart surgical procedures have been done in 134 consecutive cases (male 114, female 20), aged from 48 to 76 years with a mean of 61.7. Coronary angiograph showed that all patients have coronary stenosis with left main involved in 20 cases, and 41 cases have diffused coronary artery disease. 56 patients have post myocardial infarction left ventrical aneurysms, and 42 patients have valve dysfunction which need surgical correction. Left ventricular ejection fraction (EF) were equal to or lower than 45% in 63 patients and in 13 patients EF is less than 30%. All the patients received combined CABG under the support of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and other heart surgical procedures (Transmyocardial laser revascularization in 36, valve procedures in 42, and left ventricle aneurysm resection or plasty in 56 patients simultaneously). Results The mean number of grafts was 2.46 per patient. Intra-aortic balloon pump was required in 6 cases for 11 to 54 hours Postoperative. 3 patients died postoperatively with mortality rate 2.2% (two from low cardiac output syndrome, and one from multiple organs failure). 131 patients recovered and discharged.Conclusion Combined CABG and other heart surgical procedures in more demanding than CABG along but can be done with acceptable morbidity and mortality if good surgical plan can be designed and all the heart abnormalities can be corrected simultaneously.
