Coronary vascularization in patient maintained on chronic hemodialysis.
A patient, maintained on hemodialysis for 16 years because of chronic renal failure caused by chronic glomerulonephritis, who underwent surgical coronary revascularization, is presented. The authors conclude that preoperative hemodialysis, careful hydration of the patient, right management of cardiopulmonary bypass, use of hemodilution and aprotinin can contribute to escivating of hemofiltration and heterologue blood transfusion in uremic patients who undergo well timed coronary revascularization.
