Unexpected Radiation-Induced Aortic Wall Thickening Requiring Composite Graft Technique during Off-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting
Mediastinal radiation is commonly used to treat Hodgkin's and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, lung and breast cancer. Cardiac complications after radiation therapy are well described, although rare. A large spectrum of injuries can occur, causing long term morbidity among survivors. We describe a case of post-actinic ascending aortic wall thickening that prevented saphenous vein proximal anastomosis an...
متن کاملTwo cases of off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting combined with abdominal aortic aneurysm repair.
Two cases of coronary artery disease coexisting with abdominal aortic aneurysm were treated with off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting combined with repair of the aneurysm. The first patient was a 67-year-old man exhibiting a large pulsating abdominal mass. Abdominal computed tomography demonstrated a 9-cm aneurysm and coronary angiogram revealed a 90% stenosis of the obtuse marginal branch ...
متن کاملOff-pump coronary artery bypass grafting.
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in the United States and most developed countries. The majority of deaths are due to coronary artery disease. It is estimated that 419,000 coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) procedures were performed in the United States in 2009 for the surgical treatment of coronary artery disease. Off-pump CABG (without the use of cardiopulmonary bypass...

Evaluating Off-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting To the Editor: We read with interest the article by Sedrakyan et al.1 The authors found that off-pump surgery was associated with a reduced risk of stroke, atrial fibrillation and surgical wound infections as compared with on-pump. If the results were presented as events, the reductions were translated into 10 fewer patients with stroke, 80 wi...
متن کاملA novel coronary active perfusion system using a conventional intra-aortic balloon pump for off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting.
OBJECTIVE It is important for coronary active perfusion systems to avoid myocardial ischemia during off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting. We have developed a new concept for a perfusion system to pump blood based on changes in helium gas volume. This system uses a conventional intra-aortic balloon pump to activate the perfusion pump. Our study used basic and animal experiments to investigat...
