Abstract
We report a successful surgical case of concomitant severe coronary artery disease and ASO with advanced sigmoid colon cancer. This patient underwent two-stage operation. Resection of the sigmoid colon was carried out first, then CABG and aortofemoral bypass was carried out simultaneously. The surgical strategy of a patient with coronary artery disease and malignant neoplasm is still controvertial, however, it should be decided considering the severity and the symptoms of both disease. In this case, ascending aorta was used as a donor artery for aortofemoral bypass. This technique will bring those benefits, i.e., consecutive operation procedures in same operating field, obtaining abundant blood flow to lower limb and safe IABP catheter insertion from subcutaneously tunneled bypass graft.Entities:
