Key result
Aortic valve replacement and bypass grafting for aortic stenosis and coronary artery disease resulted in 4.4% to 5.3% in-hospital mortality, with bioprostheses enhancing late survival.

Supports combined AVR+CABG feasibility with acceptable risk; extends historical observations on bioprostheses but leaves open relevance to contemporary practice.

What are the early and late outcomes of combined aortic valve replacement and coronary bypass grafting in patients with aortic stenosis and coronary artery disease?
Combined aortic valve replacement and coronary bypass grafting can be performed with acceptable early mortality, with bioprostheses potentially enhancing late and event-free survival.
Lytle et al. (1988) conducted a cohort in Aortic stenosis and coronary artery disease (n=669). Aortic valve replacement and coronary bypass grafting was evaluated on In-hospital mortality and late survival. Aortic valve replacement and bypass grafting for aortic stenosis and coronary artery disease resulted in 4.4% to 5.3% in-hospital mortality, with bioprostheses enhancing late survival.
