Abstract

These severely ill, high-risk patients require careful surgical planning.
-Staged procedures are associated with less morbidity and mortality than
synchronous procedures
-The incidence of postoperative stroke is substantially reduced when
cardiopulmonary bypass is performed as a second procedure in patients
with present carotidal disease and peripheral vascular disease.
-Planned by-pass surgery is safe in patients with peripheral vascular
disease, with good results.
-Patients with stable or asymptomatic AAA and CAD requiring open repair
may be managed with a staged approach with CABG and AAA repair
within two weeks to minimize rupture risk.
