The article deals with a retrospective analysis of the risk for the development of unfavourable outcomes in vascular patients after interventions on coronary arteries versus those without them. The authors assessed remote survival in patients with atherosclerotic lesions of the coronary and vascular beds as compared with isolated coronary artery bypass grafting.
All patients were at the Federal Centre for Cardiovascular Surgery from October 2008 to December 2009 and later on underwent planned examination at a polyclinic. The patients were subdivided into the following groups: Group 1 comprised a total of 131 vascular patients undergoing single-stage or stepwise operations on coronary arteries (CA) (CABG + peripheral vascular disease). They were also subjected to interventions on the abdominal aorta, carotid arteries and lower-limb arteries. Group 2 (PVD) comprised a total of 153 vascular patients without myocardial revascularization with documented indications for coronary artery bypass grafting according to the findings of coronography and noninvasive methods of examination. Group 3 (CABG) consisted of 258 patients without symptoms of peripheral atherosclerosis who underwent CABG and were examined at a polyclinic over the same period of time as the study groups. The findings of examination confirmed the world-literature discussed proposition suggesting that preventive CABG considerably improves the long-term prognosis for vascular patients. This is of special importance taking into consideration that a preventive intervention on CA brings no additional risk of operative treatment.
KEY WORDS: coronary artery bypass grafting, coronary artery disease, long-term results, peripheral vascular disease, atherosclerosis.
