Abstract:
Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is an uncommon acquired disorder of blood cells characterized by intravascular hemolysis due to an inordinate sensitivity to complement-mediated membrane damage. This report documents coronary artery revascularization in a patient with PNH, which has not been described in the literature so far. We used the on-pump procedure in the present patient and successfully performed revascularization by taking prophylactic measures against hemolysis.
