title: [Efficacy of off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting in patients requiring noncardiac operations].
abstract: Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting was performed for patients with concomitant disease requiring noncardiac operations. Eight patients underwent CABG prior to or at the same time of noncardiac operation: lung cancer (2), gastric cancer (2), arteriosclerotic occlusive disease (2), abdominal aortic aneurysm (1), aorto-iliac occlusive disease (1). Of these, there were 6 patients who underwent off-pump CABG. Two patients underwent conventional CABG with extracorporeal circulation. Off-pump CABG was performed through a median sternotomy and small left thoracotomy. One patient received quadruple grafts, and another one received double, and 4 received single grafting. Simultaneous noncardiac operations were carried out in 3 patients (Y-grafting, femoro-femoral bypass, mediastinal lymphnode biopsy). The other 3 patients underwent subsequent operations (axillo-femoro-popliteal bypass, aorto-femoral bypass, subtotal gastrectomy). However, of the 2 patients with conventional CABG, 1 died of multiple metastasis after lobectomy of lung cancer that might have been affected by the extra-corporeal circulation. Off-pump CABG is efficient in patients with concomitant disease requiring noncardiac operations.
