The early and late results of combined off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting and pulmonary resection in patients with concomitant lung cancer and unstable coronary heart disease☆☆☆

Abstract: Simultaneous off-pump myocardial revascularization and lung resection is a safe and effective treatment when unstable CHD and lung cancer coexist. In selected patients, this combined procedure may be an alternative to the two-stage approach, surgical or non-surgical (cardiologic) interventions preceding the pulmonary resection. The only statistically significant factor having an impact on long-term survival is the recurrence of the cancer.

“…The advantages are as follows: firstly, if the resected tumor is a bronchioloalveolar carcinoma (BAC), this procedure can be a complete, curative treatment. 5) Secondly, the perioperative risks are fewer than for concomitant lobectomy 1,2) : our result show very few complications, with no empyema, deep sternitis, or prolonged air leakage, possibly due to the safety of using only wedge resection techniques. Thirdly, a second-stage operation can be used to perform a complete radical nodal dissection through a lateral thoracotomy, an operative approach frequently used by general thoracic surgeons, especially for the lower lobes.…”

“…There have been few large-scale studies of lung resection with concomitant cardiac surgery, [1][2][3][4] about which there is still no widely accepted consensus. At our institution, we have decided to perform cardiac surgery with concomitant wedge resection.…”

“…In addition, cardiac surgery using cardiopulmonary bypass generally causes systemic tissue edema, which may increase the risk of failure of gastrointestinal tract anastomoses (13). A recent trend has been the use of off-pump CABG to avoid the effect of cardiopulmonary bypass and decrease the use of heparin (10,14,15). The off-pump technique could markedly lower the risk of the disadvantages related to use of cardiopulmonary bypass, although other studies found no advantage of using an off-pump technique compared with cardiac surgery using cardiopulmonary bypass (3,(13)(14)(15).…”

The off-pump technique could markedly lower the risk of the disadvantages related to use of cardiopulmonary bypass, although other studies found no advantage of using an off-pump technique compared with cardiac surgery using cardiopulmonary bypass (3,(13)(14)(15). The present study demonstrated that concomitant OPCAB and non-cardiovascular surgery compared with those of isolated OPCAB did not increase operative mortality and perioperative morbidities, although the majority of patients had concomitant malignant disease and underwent laparotomy (63 patients had combined malignant diseases; 62 patients underwent general surgeries opening the abdominal cavity).…”
