PG - 353-7 AB - A total of 42 patients with combined valvular and coronary artery surgery were examined to analyze risk factors for cardiac related events and late deaths. There were aortic valve disease in 26 patients and mitral valve disease in 16. Preoperatively, 14 patients (33%) had cardiac dysfunction (ejection fraction < or = 40%) and 10 patients (24%) were in New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class IV. There was no operative death with 96% of early graft patency. There was 8 late deaths during 5.6 years of mean follow up. Actuarial survival rate was 86% and 64% after 5 and 10 years, respectively. Cardiac dysfunction was a significant independent predictor for late death. Cardiac related events occurred in 9 patients. Freedom from cardiac related events was 78% and 59% after 5 and 10 years, respectively. Cardiac dysfunction and mitral valve surgery were significant independent predictors for cardiac related events. Late result of combined mitral and coronary artery surgery was unfavorable in patients with cardiac dysfunction.
