[National Registry of Adult's Cardiac Surgery: surgical proceedings].
Recently we published preoperative risk factors, cardiac status and hemodynamics of Portuguese patients before cardiac surgery. Now we report the type of surgical procedures carried out in 5 portuguese hospitals between January of 2003 and December of 2006. In Portugal coronary artery bypass is still the more prevalent cardiac surgery, in spite of the increase on percutaneous coronary interventions.
