2010, Heart Lung and CirculationCitation Excerpt :The hazards of repeated coronary artery surgery are greater than for initial procedures [32–36]. Patients are usually older and are more likely to have poor left ventricular function, more extensive native vessel disease and greater co-morbidities so that the postoperative mortality may be two to three times greater than it is for those undergoing their first operation [32,33,35–40]. One particular hazard is that a functioning internal mammary artery (IMA) graft may be damaged; the risk of this has been estimated to be 3–5% [34,36,39].
Does Re-operation have an Effect on Outcome Following Heart Transplantation?
2007, Heart Lung and CirculationCitation Excerpt :For all these reasons the transplant recipient is expected to satisfy certain inclusion and exclusion criteria in order to be a successful candidate for the procedure.3–5 Previous cardiac operation is potentially a risk factor which may significantly influence the outcome of cardiac transplantation, especially since the technical difficulties of re-operation, in general, have been emphasised in several non-transplant reports in the past.6,7 The study aimed to identify and quantify the effect of previous cardiac operation on heart transplant patients regarding intra-operative, post-operative, and long-term outcomes using meta-analytical methodology.
