Long-term survival from 801 adjunctive coronary endarterectomies in diffuse coronary artery disease

Abstract

This significant long-term survival demonstrates that CE can be an attractive adjunct to CABG in otherwise inoperable coronary artery disease.

Comparison of Isolated Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting with Open Coronary Endarterectomy Followed by Coronary Artery Revascularization

“…The 5-year survival rates of the patients who underwent coronary endarterectomy combined with CABG were reported as 70%-86% in previous studies. 3,5,7,10,14 The limitations of the present study included having a relatively lower number of patients who underwent endarterectomy, not investigating percutaneous interventions, and all operations performed by a single surgeon. Some surgeons avoid endarterectomy because of perioperative complications.…”

“…In the literature the early mortality rates after coronary endarterectomy has been reported as 2.8-6%, which is similar to the present study results. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7]9 Open endarterectomy and long-segment anastomosis were preferred in all cases of the Group-1. Use of both close and open endarterectomy technique in the same series successfully has been demonstrated.…”

“…7 As more risky patients reffers to surgery, the percentage of the patients performed coronary endarterectomy combined with CABG has increased. 5 This study retrospectively compared outcomes in early postoperative and mid-term survival of patients who underwent isolated CABG and endarterectomy combined with CABG for 3 years.…”

Survival and Angiographic Results After Endarterectomy From the Left Anterior Descending Artery

“…По различным оценкам, его частота достигает 1,5-15% [2,3,6]. При ЭАЭ из нескольких бассейнов риск увеличивается [8].…”

“…Госпитальная летальность в изучаемой группе соста-вила 2,7%, что соответствует данным литературы [3,7,8] и лишь немного превышает аналогичные показатели в группе изолированного неосложнённого АКШ. Выжи-ваемость к восьмому году наблюдения по методу Кап-лана-Мейера составила 89,3%, однако, если из общей группы исключить больных, умерших не от кардиоваску-лярных осложнений, то мы получим показатель выжива-емости, равный 95,1%.…”
