title: [Combined valvular and coronary artery surgery].
abstract: Combined valvular and coronary surgery were performed on 9 patients between 1973 and 1986. Valve replacements were consist of 5 AVR (including 1 translocated AVR and 1 Bentall operation), 2 MVR and 2 double valve replacement. Coronary surgery were of 6 aorto-coronary bypass using great saphenous veins, 1 innominate artery-coronary bypass using a Dacron prosthesis, 1 punch-out of coronary ostium and 1 dilatation of the left coronary ostium with a vein patch. Retrograde infusion of cardioplegic solution from the coronary sinus were done in patients with coronary ostial stenoses. One emergency case with acute cardiac failure died immediately after operation, and one with double valve and one with mitral valve replacement died of hepatic failure and multiple organ failure respectively within 1 year after surgery. Combined valvular and coronary surgery are necessary for patients with both diseases. Although the results of double valve replacement were not satisfactory, they would be improved using intra-aortic balloon pump and ventricular assist devices actively.
