[Analysis of the cause of death in patients with aortocoronary bypass implants].
This paper analyzes causes of death in 91 autopsied patients in whom aortocoronary bypass surgery was performed as a therapy of ischemic heart disease. Patients who died within 30 days after surgery made up the group of so-called "early deaths", while those who died 30 or more days after the surgery made up the group of so-called "late deaths". The leading cause of death in the group of "early deaths" was myocardial infarction (51%) and then causes of death connected to other systems of organs (38%). Hematopericardium and consequential cardiac tamponade was the cause of death in 8% of cases, while in 3% of cases it was cardiac decompensation. In the group of "late deaths" the most important cause of death was myocardial infarction (56%), and then cardiac decompensation (27%), as well as causes of death connected to other systems of organs (17%).
