[VIABILITY OF MYOCAROIUM AS RISK FACTOR FOR MORTALITY IN EARLY AND LATE PERIOD AFTER BYPASS SURGERY OF CORONARY ARTERIES IN PATIENTS WITH CORONARY HEART DISEASE AND SEVERE LEFT VENTRICULAR DYSFUNCTION].

In coronary heart disease and low ejection fraction of the left ventricle (LV) in patients after coronary artery bypass surgery tend mortality and complication rate higher than preserved LV systolic function. Significant preoperative predictors of early mortality and remote in these patients, and the incidence of complications in the early postoperative period were reveald.

[Is there any alternative for the heart transplantation in patients with cardiac insufficiency of terminal stage?].

The heart transplantation constitutes the method of choice in the treatment of patients, suffering heart insufficiency, tolerant to medicinal therapy. Nevertheless, the donor's organs deficiency problem makes it necessary to search for methods of surgical treatment, which are alternative to transplantation and which would secure the patients life span prolongation as well as the quality of life improvement. New approach in surgical treatment of patients, suffering severe cardiac insufficiency have proposed Brazilian surgeon R.

[Characteristics of hemodynamics and the oxygen balance during operation for massive pulmonary artery thromboembolism with artificial blood circulation].

The experience of artificial blood circulation application in 45 patients during surgical intervention performance for the pulmonary artery thromboembolism and vena cava inferior thrombosis was summarized. Peculiarities of the artificial blood circulation preparation and conduction were depicted and characteristic of the hemodynamics and oxygen metabolism indexes on various stages of operative treatment was presented. Analysis of results of treatment in patients after the operation was conducted.

[Cardiac valve prosthesis in patients with infective endocarditis and chronic renal insufficiency in terminal stage on a programmable hemodialysis].

Mechanical cardiac valve implantation was performed in 3 patients with infective endocarditis, sepsis, chronical renal insufficiency of terminal stage, to whom the programmed dialysis was conducted. The operation was performed for vital indications. All the patients after the operation are alive, their treatment was continued, using programmed hemodialysis, effect of operation is good.
