[Perioperative Myocardial Infarction and Successful Revascularization in Patient With Primary Metasynchronic Rectal, Gastric and Bladder Cancer].

The article presents a clinical case of perioperative non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction in a patient with primary metasynchronous cancer of the rectum, stomach and bladder, which developed during simultaneous surgical intervention in the volume of proximal gastrectomy and abdominoperineal extirpation of the rectum. Fluctuations in blood pressure and imbalance in the hemostasis system at the stages of anesthesia and surgery in a patient with severe systemic atherosclerosis caused the development of myocardial ischemia in the area of significant coronary stenosis. Emergency coronary angiography detected subtotal stenosis of the anterior descending artery; stenting of the affected area of the coronary artery was performed.

[Role of modified cardiovascular risk factors in development of oncologic diseases].

Cardiovascular (CVD) and oncological diseases (OD) are the main causes of death worldwide and account for a heavy burden on economy, disability and mortality in many countries. Clear understanding of the mechanisms shared by CVD and cancer is important for increasing the life span and quality of life in cancer survivors as well as for preventing comorbidities and correct instructing the patients about risk factors and lifestyle modifications. Both groups of diseases share risk factors, including smoking, obesity, diabetes mellitus, alcohol consumption, unhealthy diet, etc.

[Anticoagulant therapy in cancer patients with atrial fibrillation. Considering age factor.].

The current issue of the choice of anticoagulant therapy of atrial fibrillation (AF) in cancer patients is considered. It is noted that the difficulty of choosing an anticoagulant in malignancies is largely determined by age-related factors, such as comorbid cardiovascular diseases, liver and kidney dysfunction, metabolic disorders common for in elderly patients. Current data on the risk assessment of hemorrhagic and thromboembolic complications of AF in cancer patients in the aspect of age presented.
