Between January 1990 and December 1999, 20 patients underwent the valve surgery concomitant with coronary artery bypass grafting. There were 16 males and 4 females, their mean age was 66.5 years. Of the 20 patients, aortic stenosis was noted in 7, aortic regurgitation in 3, mitral stenosis in one, and mitral regurgitation in 9 patients. The cause of mitral regurgitation was considered to be an ischemic change in six patients, including ruptured papillary muscle due to myocardial infarction in two patients. On the contrary, LMT lesion was recognized in 5, LAD lesion in 17, LCX in 16, and RCA in 12 patients. Seven patients had preoperative myocardial infarction, three patients were required preoperative IABP support. AVR was performed in 10, MVR in 5, and MAP in 5 patients. The number of bypass was 1.9 +/- 0.85. Four patients died of LOS and MOF. The remaining 16 patients have been doing well. The significant difference between the survived and the not survived patients was recognized in the factor of emergency, preoperative IABP, papillary muscle rupture due to myocardial infarction, history of PTCA, LAD lesion, and the time of CPB. The factors regarding coronary artery had the influence on the outcome of a patients of valve surgery concomitant with CABG. Therefore, an appropriate myocardial protection and perioperative management for ischemia were mandatory.
