[Successful aorto-coronary bypass in the care of unstable heart ischemia in the course of irreversible renal failure treated by repeated hemodialyses]

Abstract

Cardiovascular diseases especially coronary heart diseases are responsible for high rate (about 50%) of deaths in the group of patients with irreversible renal failure treated with hemodialysis. Coronary artery bypass grafting is recommended as a method of choice in symptomatic patients with coronary heart disease being the candidate for renal transplantation. On the basis of recently observed patient successfully treated with coronary artery bypass grafting pre- and and postoperative dialysis protocol is presented and discussed with literature.
