CORONARY ARTERY BYPASS SURGERY IN PERITONEAL DIAL YSIS PATIENTS

Peter T. McNamee, Kostas I. Sombolos, Tyrone E. David and Dimitrios G. Oreopoulos

From the Divisions of Nephrology and Cardio vascular Surgery, the Toronto Western Hospital, Toronto.

Over the last two years, in the Toronto Western Hospital, five chronic renal failure patients suffering from severe symptomatic ischemic heart disease, who had been maintained on peritoneal dialysis underwent coronary artery bypass surgery. One of the five had simultaneous mitral valve replacement. Of the five, four survived with substantial improvement in symptoms, the fifth died soon after the operation. This paper describes the management of these patients and the dialysis technique used in the preand postoperative periods.

KEY WORDS: Coronary bypass surgery; Ischemic heart disease.
