Abstract
Surgical
therapy of combined coronary artery disease (cad) and heart failure, also
referred to As
end-stage cad, has evolved throughout the years and patients are currently
being offered traditional Coronary
artery bypass grafting (cabg), with or without surgical ventricle restoration
(svr), interventions For
ischemic mitral valve regurgitation, heart transplantation or implantation of
mechanical cardiovascular Support
systems. Among surgical methods, operative myocardial revascularization (with
or without ventricle Restoration)
is still playing an important role, aiming at restoration of proper myocardial
perfusion, especially If
heart muscle viability is present. Facing the donor shortage, cabg may
constitute a valuable alternative To
transplantation in selected patients. In individuals considered not suitable
for surgical revascularization, Implantation
of mechanical circulatory support (mcs) not only appears as a salvage
procedure, but also Allows
for reevaluation of future therapy directions. This article aims at providing
an overview of evolving And
current surgical practices in patients with end-stage cad.
