Key result
Simultaneous surgery for extensive extracranial and coronary revascularization resulted in an operative mortality of 3% and actuarial survival of 75% at 5 years and 57% at 10 years.

What are the long-term outcomes of simultaneous extensive extracranial and coronary revascularization in patients with concomitant disease?
Simultaneous extracranial and coronary revascularization yields acceptable long-term survival, with late outcomes predominantly determined by cardiac rather than neurological events.
Vermeulen et al. (1988) conducted a cohort in Extensive extracranial and coronary disease (n=168). Simultaneous surgery for extensive extracranial and coronary revascularization was evaluated on Actuarial survival at 5 years. Simultaneous surgery for extensive extracranial and coronary revascularization resulted in an operative mortality of 3% and actuarial survival of 75% at 5 years and 57% at 10 years.
