Myocardial revascularization at extremes – surgical revascularization in acute coronary syndrome

Myocardial revascularization at extremes – surgical revascularization in acute coronary syndrome

Methods At our Institute, 122 patients with ACS were surgically revascularized using extracorporeal circulation in the first 10 days after the coronarography by one surgical team in the 5 years period. Patients were stratified into two groups: 65 patients operated within 4 days (group 1), and 57 patients operated from 5-Th to 10-Th day after the clopidogrel discontinuation (group 2). Patients w...

Early surgical revascularization after acute myocardial infarction

Methods A total of 62 consecutive patients underwent CABG therapy within 14 days after the onset of myocardial infarction between September 2009 and January 2013 at our institution. Prospectively recorded preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative data were retrospectively screened for in-hospital mortality and major adverse postoperative events (low cardiac output syndrome, prolonged mech...

Surgical myocardial revascularization after acute infarction.

The records of 288 patients undergoing isolated surgical myocardial revascularization between June 1989 and September 1992 were reviewed to determine the relative risk associated with surgery after an acute myocardial infarction (MI). A total of 73 patients (25 percent) were operated on within 30 days of an acute infarction while 215 patients (75 percent) had no history of recent infarction. Pa...

Surgical myocardial revascularization versus stents

OBJECTIVES: To compare coronary artery bypass to stenting in our institution, and to compare the studied samples for major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular outcomes. METHOD: An observational cohort study. We analyzed 202 patients undergoing coronary artery surgical revascularization versus stenting in our institution between January 17 and July 31, 2009; patients were stratified into: Group ...
