[Coronary surgery at the Institute of Clinical and Experimental Medicine]
In 1971-1991 in the Institute of Clinical and Experimental Medicine 2386 operations on account of IHD were performed. 2154 aortocoronary bypasses, 6 Vineberg operations, 51 valvular prostheses and aortocoronary bypasses, 128 resections of left ventricular aneurysms and 47 closures of post-infarction perforations of the interventricular septum. The mortality from aortocoronary bypasses during the entire period was 6.9%. The authors discuss different periods, changes of the operative technique and contemporary views on surgical treatment of IHD.
