Summary
Objective: We describe our strategy and the outcomes of simultaneous coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) during surgery for thoracic aortic aneurysms in patients with coronary artery disease.
Patients and Methods: We enrolled 34 consecutive patients (age: 70.6 ± 10.9 years) who underwent simultaneous elective surgeries between June 2000 and June 2007. The aorta was replaced under cardiopulmonary bypass with moderate or profound hypothermia. We performed CABG while waiting for, and/or during recovery from hypothermia. The mean number of anastomoses was 1.8 ± 0.9, and the complete revascularization rate was 88.2%.
