Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting in Kidney and Pancreas Transplantation: First Case in Turkey and a Short Literature Review
Abstract
A
37-year-old man with symptoms of cardiovascular disease applied to our
hospital. Seven years ago, he had undergone combined kidney and pancreas
transplantation. Afterwards, 4 years ago, his renal transplantation was
repeated because of rejection. Coronary artery angiography revealed two-vessel
coronary artery stenosis. We performed coronary artery bypass grafting to treat
the coronary artery disease. The post-operative period was uneventful, and he
was discharged from the hospital without any complications. Coronary artery
diseases in recipients of combined kidney and pancreas transplantation can be
safely treated using coronary artery bypass grafting.
