A 68-year-old man was diagnosed with severe aortic stenosis and right coronary artery occlusion on preoperative examination for total extirpation of a giant left breast liposarcoma. Prior to the intervention for the liposarcoma, he underwent successful aortic valve replacement and coronary artery bypass grafting via a right anterolateral thoracotomy to avoid the tumor close to the sternum. On postoperative day 28, the patient underwent a successful wide excision of the left chest wall tumor.

Abstract Introduction Left ventricular (LV) thrombus is a complication of acute myocardial infarction and is associated with systemic thromboembolism. We describe a trans-aortic endoscopic approach to the removal of an LV thrombus in a patient undergoing concurrent coronary artery bypass grafting and aortic valve replacement. Case presentation A 47 year old male presented following an embolic middle cerebral artery stroke and underwent transthoracic echocardiography demonstrating a mobile LV thrombus. Additional investigation revealed a moderately stenosed bicispid aortic valve, two vessel coronary artery disease and ischemic cardiomyopathy. The patient underwent early surgery to reduce the risk of further embolic episodes. A trans-aortic approach was utilized with videoscopy and single shafted instrumentation to aide in removal of the thrombus. The patient then underwent aortic valve replacement and coronary artery bypass grafting. Conclusion We report an alternative technique for the removal of a left ventricular thrombus in a patient undergoing concurrent coronary and aortic valve surgery. The transaortic video-assisted approach provided excellent visualisation of the apex and near complete removal of the thrombus without damaging the surrounding trabeculae. The main benefit of this technique is sparing of LV tissue, thereby preserving left ventricular function.

Aortic valve replacement is the second most common cardiac surgery procedure. Prosthesis-patient size mismatch can increase the incidence of adverse events postoperatively, it also leads to increased left ventricular load. Some studies describe the higher mortality in this group of patients. It is also proved that patients with severe aortic stenosis usually have impaired platelet aggregation and low von Willebrand factor causing bleeding disorders. We report a case of successful aortic valve replacement and aortic root enlargement (Nicks technique) combined with coronary artery bypass grafting (left internal mammary artery to the left anterior descending artery) and left atrial appendage resection in 73-y.o. obese female patient. Postoperative course was uneventful.

Cardiac Procedures

Aortic valve replacement and/or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) have become the most common cardiac procedures as the population ages and life expectancy increases. In isolation, both CABG and aortic valve replacement are performed with excellent outcomes throughout the world with operative mortalities of 1–2%. Both procedures have seen significant advances in recent years. The combination of an aortic valve procedure and CABG adds increased complexity and risk, which must be accounted for during operative planning in order to mitigate as much of the increased risk as possible. Improvements in postoperative care, myocardial protection, and operative techniques for combined CABG and aortic valve replacement have resulted in an operative mortality of 0.8–6.4% in recent series.
