Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Infectious Diseases
  • Virology

Context:

  • Cardiac surgery in patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) presents unique challenges.
  • Understanding outcomes is crucial for managing this growing population.

Purpose:

  • To evaluate the safety and outcomes of cardiac surgery in HIV-positive patients.
  • To assess the impact of cardiopulmonary bypass on HIV carriers.

Summary:

  • Nine HIV carriers underwent cardiac surgery, with eight using cardiopulmonary bypass for valve procedures.
  • Most patients were asymptomatic; one had generalized lymphadenopathy.
  • Hospital mortality was 11.1%, with no infectious morbidity. Five patients remain well long-term.

Impact:
