[Myocardial revascularization combined with mitral valve surgery in case of XXXX ].

@entity1 @entity583 @entity339
BACKGROUND: The aim of the study was to evaluate the possibility of mitral valve surgery in @entity1 with @entity339 and short time outcomes following mitral valve correction combined with coronary artery bypass grafting. METHODS: Thirty one combined coronary artery bypass grafting with mitral valve correction procedures were performed from 1994 to 2002. Mean age was 65.4+/-6 years. 29 pts were in NYHA IV-V functional class. 84% of pts were with impaired left ventricle function. RESULTS: Mitral valve replacement was performed in 16 @entity1 and correction of mitral valve in 15 cases. Mitral valve replacement was performed in cases with significant lesions of the papillary muscles. The mean of 3.05+/-1.8 graft per @entity1 was performed and total coronary revascularisation for 84% of @entity1 . Hospital mortality was 32.2% (10/31). CONCLUSION: In cases of coronary artery bypass grafting for @entity1 with moderate and significant @entity339 after @entity583 , mitral valve correction must be performed.
