My patient has to under go CABG and surgery for abdominal aneurysm simultaneously.is it life threatning? |
He is 70 years old and has been diagnosed with a triple artery block. He also has abdominal Aneurysm which is 6cm in diameter. Artery blokage is 90% , 85% and 65%. He was brought to the hospital after suffering a heart attack. If he's your patient, you should know if it's life threatening. I recomment Off-pump CABG to the patient. ANY surgery is potentially life threatening because of the anesthesia; adding to that the fact that he already had injury to his heart due to the MI, has significant coronary arterial blockage AND has nephrotic syndrome (and is 70), adds to challenge to survive the surgery. I'd be very surprised (from the little you related) if they do the two together. We would normally have the patient undergo CABG, then shortly later, the AAA. |
