RESUMO
We present case series of simultaneous surgery for coexisting cardiac and non-cardiac pathologies to evaluate the feasibility of the treatment. The retrospective analysis included 27 patients aged between 28 and 74 years. The most often heart diseases were coronary arterial disease and valve defects, and the most often heart surgery was coronary artery bypass grafting. The non-cardiac diseases included neoplasms in the abdominal cavity, urinary system, and chest organs. The average duration of surgery was 277 ± 87 minutes, blood loss 285 ± 182 ml. The in-hospital mortality was 0%, with median stay of 2 and 12 days in the intensive care unit (ICU) and emergency room, respectively. The 1 and 5-year survival rates were 85.7% and 76.2%, respectively. Simultaneous surgeries can be a treatment of choice for patients with cardiac pathology and concomitant neoplasm in abdominal, thoracic, or urinary system. This is the first such study conducted in the Central-Asian region and, in particular, in Kazakhstan.
