[Arterial revascularization of the heart and intraoperative balloon angioplasty].

Authors report a combined method currently introduced in their practice in surgical treatment of ischemic heart disease. Besides the solely arterial revascularisation of the heart, successful intraoperative balloon dilatation of the recipient LAD stenosis was carried out. Main steps of the method's history, indication and the required tools are described. Through a case report on the ground of experiences reported in the literature they stand for and the use of the method.

Angioplasty, Balloon

[Coronary revascularization in post-infarction patients].

Authors report the type of revascularization, the result of noninvasive and invasive investigations carried out 6-9 months after surgery, improvement of functional status of 56 postinfarction patients with recurrent angina pectoris. They conclude, that recoronarography performed in 12 patients revealed diminished patency rate compared to the estimated predictive one, especially in those, where complete revascularization was considered to have been carried out. Ejection fraction, wall motion score by ventriculography and echocardiography did not seem to improve significantly. However Dipyridamol Thallium scintigraphy showed marked improvement in perfusion in all cases. NYHA functional status has noticeably improved in the reexamined patients.

Echocardiography

[Surgical management of aneurysm of the ascending aorta associated with aortic valve insufficiency].

Out of 318 aortic valve replacements performed between July 1, 1984 and June 30, 1989, aneurysm of the ascending aorta was found in 17 cases. In 7 of these cases employment of conduit was required due to the dimension of the aneurysm. In 5 cases they performed Bentall procedure: aortic valve replacement combined with conduit of the ascending aorta with the replantation of the coronaries. Based on the data of the literature and the acceptable early and late results of their own they conclude, that in case of simultaneous occurrence of aortic valve disease and aneurysm of the ascending aorta the Bentalll procedure is the method of choice.
