[One-stage surgery in patients with both cardiac and non-cardiac diseases].

OBJECTIVE To investigate the possibility and feasibility of one-stage cardiac and non-cardiac surgery. METHODS From July 1999 to August 2018, one hundred and eleven patients suffering from cardiac and non-cardiac diseases were treated by one-stage cardiac and non-cardiac operation in Department of Cardiac Surgery and Thoracic Surgery, General Surgery, Urinary Surgery, and Gynecology, Peking University First Hospital. There were 83 males (74.8%) and 28 females (25.2%), aged 41 to 84 years [mean age: (64.64±8.97) years]. The components of the cardiac disease included coronary heart disease, valvular heart disease, cardiac tumors, chronic constrictive pericarditis and congenital heart disease. The components of the non-cardiac diseases included lung benign and malignant diseases, thymoma and thymic cyst, breast cancer, chest wall giant hemangioma, digestive tract benign and malignant diseases, urinary system carcinoma and gynecological diseases. RESULTS Two patients died after operations in hospital; thus, the hospital mortality rate was 1.8%. One patient died of multiple organ failure on the 153th days after emergency coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) combined with radical resection of bladder cancer. The other of pericardium stripping with lung cancer operation died of the multiple organ failure on the tenth day after surgery. The remaining 109 patients recovered and were discharged. There were 13 cases of complications during the days in hospital. The total operative morbidity was 11.7%: postoperative hemorrhage in 2 cases (1.8%), pulmonary infection and hypoxemia in 3 cases (2.7%), hemorrhage of upper digestive tract in 1 case (0.9%), incisional infection in 3 cases (2.7%), subphrenic abscess in 1 case (0.9%), and postoperative acute renal failure and hemofiltration in 3 case (2.7%). Of the 109 patients discharged, 108 patients were followed up. All the patients survived for 6 months, and 21 patients died due to tumor recurrence or metastasis within 1 to 5 years of follow-up, but no cardiogenic death. During the follow-up period, 1 patient developed cardiac dysfunction, 1 patient underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), 1 patient had cerebral hemorrhage due to excessive postoperative anticoagulation, and 1 patient suffered from incisional hernia. CONCLUSION One-stage surgeries in patients suffering from both cardiac and non-cardiac benign or malignant diseases are safe and possible with satisfactory short-term and long-term survival.
