[Concomitant surgical treatment of valvular heart disease and coronary artery disease].
Concomitant valvular surgery and coronary artery bypass grafting were performed in 24 patients. Aortic valve replacement was carried out in 18 cases (A group), and mitral valve surgery (M group) was done in 6 cases (replacement in 3, and plasty in 3). There were two hospital deaths (11.1%) in the A group, and two (33.3%) in the M group of mitral valve replacement with Hancock II. One late death was observed in the M group. Aortic valve replacement with coronary revascularization resulted in satisfactory outcome. However, surgical management of concomitant mitral valve and coronary artery disease may need to be improved.
