Jpn J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg. 1998 Dec;46(12):1226-8. doi: 10.1007/BF03217907.

Abstract

Simultaneous minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass and abdominal aortic aneurysm repair were conducted in a 66-year-old man uneventful, requiring no transfusion. Surgery required 9 hours and 2 minutes. The tracheal tube was extubated in the operating room. Postoperative bleeding was 215 ml. The postoperative course was very smooth, with the patient able to walk on postoperative day 1. Postoperative coronary arteriogram and aortogram showed favorable results and the patient was discharged on day 23 after surgery.
