Simultaneous Coronary Bypass and Aorta- Right Common Carotid Artery Bypass Operation

Coexistence of symptomatic coronary artery disease(CAD) and significant carotid artery stenosis(CAS) ranges from 3.4% to 22% . Although a simultaneous carotid endarterectomy and coronary artery bypass is generally accepted, there are discussions about the best approach. The difference in our case was the coexistence of coronary artery disease with internal carotid artery stenosis instead of a right common carotid artery stenosis, which was unsuitable for stenting. In this study, we report a simultaneous coronary artery bypass and an aortaright common carotis artery bypass operation with a synthetic graft in a patient with carotid artery disease and coronary artery disease.
