title: [Emergency coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) for complications of percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA)].
abstract: Eighteen cases of emergency coronary artery bypass for complications of PTCA were carried out. Nine cases were in cardiogenic shock, and 3 cases of them died. All these 3 cases had acute occlusion of donor arteries for jeopardized collaterals. It is important not to lose a timing of surgical therapy, especially in cardiogenic shock case.
