Abstract:
Many patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm have coexisting coronary artery disease. There is no evidence regarding the safety or efficacy of surgery, or whether surgery should be done in 1 session or in more than 1 session. Single-stage surgery is generally more invasive. We performed single-stage surgery using minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass graft surgery (MIDCAB) for revascularization in 4 patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm and coronary artery disease. The average operation time was 399 min. The average number of bypassed grafts was 1.75 per patient. All patients were extubated within 24 h after surgery. The average discharge time was 29.3 postoperative days. No patients died during surgery or during hospitalization. Multidetector-row CT scan showed all bypassed grafts to be patent. MIDCAB surgery is safe and effective for revascularization in performing single-stage surgery in patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm and coronary artery disease.
