Surgical Myocardial Revascularization in Patients with Severe Left Ventricular Dysfunction: Experience in the Cardiac Surgery Department of the Military Hospital Mohammed V of Rabat
2020
Patients with coronary artery disease associated with severe left ventricular dysfunction, candidates for
surgical myocardial revascularization, are with high operative risk. The aim of this study was to assess short
and long-term morbidity and mortality and to identify their predictive factors.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective study in the cardiac surgery department of the Military Instruction
Hospital Mohammed V- Rabat, between 2000 and 2015. The statistical analysis was executed by SPSS.
There were 74 patients (mean age 74±10 years, ejection fraction [FE]: 30.07%±4 .5, Euroscore: 6.6±2.9).
Results: Hospital mortality was 9.5%, with a follow up time of 59.2 ± 36 months. The survival rate at 10
years was 57%. There was also an improvement in their clinical symptoms and echocardiographic
parameters (postoperative FE: 40.36%±11.2).
Conclusion: In this group of patients with high operative risk, the long-term results of several studies
demonstrate the superiority of surgical treatment on medical treatment.
