Abstract: | A 68-year-old male patient with a left atrial myxoma, mitral regurgitation, ischemic heart disease and abdominal aortic aneurysm underwent resection of the myxoma, mitral valve replacement, 4 coronary artery bypass grafting and replacement of the aneurysm simultaneously. The aneurysm was replaced under partial cardiopulmonary bypass. Combined cardiac and abdominal aortic operation is useful in selected patients who require IABP support postoperatively or whose cardiac function is poor. |
