The anomalous origin of the circumflex artery (Cx) is uncommon and presents course variations that might make the coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) difficult. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Intermittent Fever

  We report the case of a patient with a 10-month history of intermittent fevers after coronary artery bypass operation who presented with progressive shortness of breath and fever. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Goiter

  Also, she had multinodular goiter with normal thyroid function test. After midsternotomy, a huge goiter was seen in the upper mediastinum. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Euthyroid

  Fourteen months later, the patient was euthyroid and in NYHA class 1. The evidence of the case showed that combined CABG and thyroidectomy can be performed safely. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  This damage limits blood flow and, if left untreated, can lead to advanced heart disease, including heart attack. [lutheranhospital.com]

  For the majority of cardiac surgical patients, that is those with coronary heart disease, the technical problems of the operative procedure have been solved to a great extent. [books.google.ro]

In summary, careful workup in the preoperative period and strategies to minimize hemolysis by avoiding oxidizing drugs and hypothermia, limiting the aortic cross clamp time, total CPB time, and maintaining good urine output is central to the successful [annals.in]

The appropriate diagnostic workup of patients before revascularization should thus include a full medical history, an ECG, laboratory assessments, cardiac echocardiography, and coronary angiography. [doi.org]

• Mural Thrombus

  Recent Anterior MI, LV Mural Thrombus, and Stroke Risk Class IIa Long-term (3 to 6 months) anticoagulation is probably indicated for the patient with recent anteroapical infarct and persistent wall-motion abnormality after coronary bypass. [doi.org]

• Right Pleural Effusion

  Chest roentgenograph demonstrated right pleural effusion and severe pulmonary edema. An echocardiographic study demonstrated a mass located posterior to the left ventricle that severely compressed the left ventricle toward the ventricular septum. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
