* Reoperative patients .
* Concomitant PVD .
* Poor LV function .
8. Surgical Approaches
1- Open – Heart Surgery : thoracic cavity is opened to
expose the heart and the blood is recirculated and
oxygenated through CPB ( heart – lung machine )
e.g. CABG .
2- Off – Pump Heart Surgery : this approach is like
traditional open heart surgery . However , the heart
isn’t stopped , and a CPM isn’t used .
3- Minimally Invasive Heart Surgery : surgeon makes
small incisions in the side of the chest between ribs ,
9. Types & Techniques
I – CABG :
* CAD has been treated by myocardial
revascularization since 1960s , and the most
common CABG techniques have been performed for
more than 35 years .
* CABG is a surgery that increases blood flow to the
heart by creating a detour and re-routing the blood
flow around the blocked portion of the artery .
10.
11. Types & Techniques
I – CABG :
* The major indications for CABG are alleviation of
angina that cannot be controlled with medication or
PCI , treatment of left main coronary artery stenosis
or multivessel CAD , prevention and treatment of MI
or heart failure , treatment for complications from
unsuccessful PCI .
12. Types & Techniques
I – CABG :
* Performed less frequently in women . Compared with
men , women referred for this surgery tend to be
older and have more comorbidities . In addition , they
have a higher risk of surgical complications such as
MI and stroke ( Puskas , Kilgo , Kutner , et al., 2007 )
. Furthermore , women have smaller coronary
arteries , which make the surgical procedure
technically more difficult .
13. Types & Techniques
I – CABG :
* The recommendation for CABG is determined by a
number of factors , including the number of diseased
coronary vessels , the degree of LV dysfunction ,
comorbidities , severity of symptoms and any other
previous treatment . Studies have shown that CABG
may be the preferred treatment for high – risk patients
such as those with sever three vessels CAD ,
ventricular dysfunction and diabetes ( Bravata ,
Gienger , McDonald , et la., 2007 ) . CABG to be
considered if occlusion 70 % approximately especially
14. Types & Techniques
I – CABG :
* Traditional technique : surgeon performs a median
sternotomy and connect patient to CPB machine .
Next , a blood vessel from either saphenous vein or
left/right internal mammary artery is grafted distal to
the coronary artery lesion by passing the obstruction .
15.
16.
17. Types & Techniques
I – CABG :
* Alternative technique : Off – Pump CABG ( OPCAB )
involves a standard median sternotomy incision , but
the surgery performed without CPB , β – blocker
maybe used to slow the heart rate . The surgeon also
used a myocardial stabilization device to hold the site
still for the anastemosis of the bypass graft . Potential
benefits include a decrease in the incidence of stroke
and other neurological complications , renal failure .
18.
19. Types & Techniques
I – CABG :
* Risks vs. Benefits : many benefits such as decrease
in angina , improved life – span , and providing an
effective route for blood with prevention of new
plaques formation . Some complications seen after
surgery are Atrial fibrillation , increased risk for
stroke , and cognitive dysfunction . Some researches
showed less than 2% chance of death , 5% stroke or
other neurological injury , and 20-40% Atrial fibrillation
.
20. Types & Techniques
II – Valve repair and replacement procedures :
* Valvuloplasty : the repair of cardiac valve , most
Valvuloplasty procedures requires general anesthesia
and often CPB . However , some procedures can be
performed in the cardiac catheterization lab . The type
of Valvuloplasty depends on the cause and the type
of valve dysfunction .
21. Types & Techniques
II – Valve repair and replacement procedures :
* Types of Valvuloplasty
1- Commissurotomy : each valve has leaflets , site
where leaflets meet is called commissure , so
Commissurotomy is the procedure performed to
separate the fused leaflets . There is two types open
and closed ( ballon Valvuloplasty ) .
22. Types & Techniques
II – Valve repair and replacement procedures :
* Types of Valvuloplasty
1- Commissurotomy :
a – Clo s e d : do not require CPB , valve not directly
visualized , performed in the OR with the patient
under GA , midsternal incision is made , a small hole
is cut into the heart , and the surgeon's finger or
dilator is used to open the commissure .
23.
24. Types & Techniques
II – Valve repair and replacement procedures :
* Types of Valvuloplasty
1- Commissurotomy :
a – Clo s e d : percutanous balloon Valvuloplasty is the
technique most commonly performed in US . Balloon
Valvuloplasty is beneficial for mitral stenosis in young
patients , for aortic valve stenosis in elderly patients ,
and for patients with complex medical conditions that
place them at high risk for post-op complications .
25.
26.
27. Types & Techniques
II – Valve repair and replacement procedures :
* Types of Valvuloplasty
1- Commissurotomy :
b – O p e n : are performed with direct visualization of the
valve , the patient is under GA , CPB initiated , a
midsternal or left thoracic incision is made , the valve
is exposed and the surgeon uses a scalpel , finger ,
balloon , or dilator to open commissures
28. Types & Techniques
II – Valve repair and replacement procedures :
* Types of Valvuloplasty
2- Annuloplasty : is the repair of the valve annulus ( ie,
junction of the valve leaflets and the muscular heart
wall ) . GA and CPB are required . The procedure
narrows the diameter of the valve’s orifice and is
useful for the treatment of valvular regurgitation .
29. Types & Techniques
II – Valve repair and replacement procedures :
* Types of Valvuloplasty
2- Annuloplasty : there are two techniques . The first
one uses an annuloplasty ring , which may be
preshaped ( rigid / semirigid ) or flexible . The leaflets
of the valves are sutured to a ring , creating an
annulus of the desired size . When the ring is in
place , the tension created by the moving blood and
contracting heart is born by the ring rather than by the
30. Types & Techniques
II – Valve repair and replacement procedures :
* Types of Valvuloplasty
2- Annuloplasty : the second technique involves tacking
the valve leaflets to the atrium with sutures or tacking
tucks to tighten the annulus .

32. Types & Techniques
II – Valve repair and replacement procedures :
* Types of Valvuloplasty
3- Leaflet Repair : valve leaflets damage may result
from stretching , shortening , or tearing . The
elongated tissue may folded over onto self and
sutured . A wedge of tissue may be cut from the
middle of the leaflets and the gab suture closed .
33. Types & Techniques
II – Valve repair and replacement procedures :
* Types of Valvuloplasty
4- Chordoplasty : is the repair of Chordae tendineae .
Mitral valve is involved with Chordoplasty , tricuspid
valve seldom requires Chordoplasty .
34. Types & Techniques
II – Valve repair and replacement procedures :
* Valve Replacement : GA and CPB are used ,
procedure performed through median sternotomy .
Two types of valves may be used .
