| Abstract | PURPOSE We evaluated a treatment strategy for acute myocardial infarction (AMI) that percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is performed on a culprit lesion unless the culprit is an unprotected left main trunk. Emergent coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is done when the culprit is a left main trunk and a mechanical complication exists. METHODS From 1997 to 2008, 22 and 232 patients underwent CABG for AMI and non-AMI, respectively. Of the 22 patients of AMI, PCI was performed in 12 patients and not performed in 10 patients before surgery. We investigated complication, intubation period, in-hospital mortality and hospitalization period. RESULTS No in-hospital mortality was observed in all 22 AMI patients. There was no difference in in-hospital mortality and complication between the AMI and the non-AMI patients. No significant difference was found in hospital stay, complication, intubation period, in-hospital mortality and hospitalization period between patients who received preceding PCI and not. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that our treatment strategy is reasonable. Further studies will be warranted to clarify the role of preceding PCI. |
