Abstract
BACKGROUND: We were interested in whether current multiarterial off-pump coronary artery bypass graft surgery can improve the clinical outcome for insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus patients. METHODS: Between January 2002 and December 2013, 1,064 consecutive patients underwent isolated off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery at our hospital; 551 of these patients had diabetes. Of these 551 patients, 166 had insulin-dependent diabetes (IDM) and the remaining 385 had noninsulin-dependent diabetes (NIDM). The propensity score was calculated to achieve one-to-two matching sets (IDM 143 versus NIDM 286). RESULTS: Ten patients (3.5%) in the NIDM group and 2 patients (1.4%) in the IDM group died in hospital (p = 0.18). Insulin dependency was not an independent risk factor for any early death or major complications. Follow-up was complete for 96.5% of the patients, with a mean follow-up of 4.6 ± 3.8 years. Overall survival rate at 10 years was 76.3% for the NIDM group and 73.1% for the IDM group (p = 0.79). The rate of 10-year actuarial freedom from major adverse cardiac events was 89.6% in the NIDM group and 86.3% in the IDM group (p = 0.72). Multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression analysis revealed that female sex, congestive heart failure, previous myocardial infarction, lower ejection fraction, and at least one major complication were independent risk factors for combined cardiac events. Insulin dependency did not affect any outcome in the long term. CONCLUSIONS: Early and long-term outcomes after off-pump skeletonized multiarterial coronary artery bypass graft surgery were similar among the IDM and NIDM patients.
