Combined surgery was associated with higher late mortality; leaves open optimal strategies for non-dialysis-dependent chronic renal failure.
Does the type of cardiovascular surgery impact early and late mortality in patients with non-dialysis-dependent chronic renal failure?
In patients with non-dialysis-dependent chronic renal failure, morbidity and survival following cardiac surgery are primarily driven by preoperative characteristics, though combined CABG and valvular surgery increases late mortality risk.
