Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting in Elderly Patients. In-Hospital Results and Long-Term Follow-up
Background. Taking into account the steady increase in the number of elderly patients requiring coronary artery bypass grafting, we sought to analyze the in-hospital and long-term evolution of a group of elderly patients (≥ 75 years) who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting, and to identify cli...

Taking into account the steady increase in the number of elderly patients requiring coronary artery bypass grafting, we sought to analyze the in-hospital and long-term evolution of a group of elderly patients (≥ 75 years) who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting, and to identify clinical predictors of mortality and long-term symptoms. Methods. Between April 1996 and February 2000, 207 patients older than 75 years of age who had undergone coronary bypass grafting were propectively and consecutively analyze. Mean age was 78.4 ± 2.7. Results. An average of 2.6 grafts/patients was constructed. Left mammary artery was used in 93% of patients. The in-hospital incidence of heart failure, atrial fibrillation, preoperative infarction and stroke was 38%, 29%, 4.8% and 2.8% respectively. The in-hospital mortality rate was 5.8%. Mean follow-up was 18 months (25th an 75th percentiles 9-29). Late mortality rate was 4.1% in eight patients. Excluding the in-hospital deaths, the estimaded probability of survival (Kaplan-Meier) at 3 years was 94% and the survival freedom from symptoms was 86%. A multivariate analysis showed that only age was predictor of in-hospital mortality (OR 1.16, p = 0.009). Only peripheral vascular disease was found as a predictor of symptoms during the long-term follow-up (p = 0.001). Conclusions. In this series of senile patients who underwent coronary surgery, those of an older age (> 80 years) showed a higher risk of in-hospital mortality. The presence of peripheral vascular disease is useful in the prognosis assessment of the group.
