Abstract

A functional single lung caused by lung diseases or pneumonectomy can result in anatomic and physiologic changes that may interfere with the conduct of subsequent coronary artery bypass surgery. Since this type of case is extremely rare, there has not been any report on this in Korea. A 71-year-old female with a history of a destroyed left lung from pulmonary tuberculosis 13 years ago was admitted for evaluation of her increasing chest pain that she’d experienced for 2 weeks. Since coronary angiographies demonstrated 80% stenosis of the left main os, 90∼95% stenosis of the p-LAD, 90% stenosis of the m-LCx and 90% stenosis of the RCA, coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) was planned. Off-pump CABG with vein grafts through a median sternotomy was performed and the patient recovered the same as other CABG patients without complications.
