Combined Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery and Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Repair during Cardiopulmonary Bypass for Patients with Severe Left Ventricular Dysfunction

Coronary artery bypass surgery and abdominal aortic aneurysm repair were performed simultaneously during cardiopulmonary bypass in two patients with severe left ventricular dysfunction. Both patients underwent coronary artery bypass surgery first, followed by abdominal aortic aneurysm repair during cardiopulmonary bypass. Combined surgery is reasonable for patients with combined coronary artery disease and abdominal aortic aneurysm. Aortic aneurysm repair during cardiopulmonary bypass for patients with severe left ventricular dysfunction also appears safe and effective.
