Abstract
|
|
|
From Octorber 1984 through September 1991, 480 patients underwent percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty and 7 of these(1.4%) required coronary artery bypass surgeries in the emergency base. The principal indications for surgery were
coronary
dissections(n=1), acute coronary occlusions(n=3), and ventricular arrhythmias(n=2). There were two early deaths and one late death. No patient who developed cardiac arrest and had not been resuscitated before surgery survived the operation. The
outcome
of surgery was related to the preoperative clinical status of patients.
