N2 - The pattern and frequency of hyperbilirubinemia after cardiac surgery and its effect on postoperative complications are not well described. Postoperative hyperbilirubinemia due to liver dysfunction may be associated with increased morbidity and mortality. We present a 60-year-old male patient that we detected pericardial hematoma and collapsed right ventricle after the coronary artery bypass surgery. Patient’s clinical status was improved after the operation for evacuating hematoma. Total bilirubin and direct bilirubin levels of patient were increased up to 8,3 mg/dl and 2,3 mg/dl respectively in the first day of re-operation. In follow up, bilirubin level reached to a maximum level of 23.1 mg/dl on sixth day. In ultrasonography hepatic tissue and bilirubin tract were normal. Hepatic function tests except bilirubin such as alanin aminotransferaz (ALT), aspartat aminotransferaz (AST) and gama glutamil transferaz (GGT) were in normal level. Hyperbilirubinemia resolved spontaneously without any specific treatment. CR - Wang MJ, Chao A, Huang CH, et al. Hyperbilirubinemia after cardiac operation.
