An 89-year-old man and an 80-year-old woman were treated surgically for critical aortic stenosis secondary to senile calcific aortic disease and high-grade calcified lesions in the ostium of the right coronary artery. Minimally invasive aortic valve replacement and concurrent coronary artery bypass grafting were performed concurrently through a 5-cm right anterior thoracotomy in the second intercostal space. Surgery was uncomplicated in both cases, with no adverse events. Both patients were alive and well at midterm follow-up. Concurrent minimally invasive aortic valve replacement and coronary artery bypass grafting can be performed successfully through a limited right anterior thoracotomy.

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.

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.

The incidence of chylopericardium after cardiac surgery is unusual, but there are documented cases. Those caring for these patients need to be aware of the symptoms and management of chylopericardium because, if left untreated, it may cause catastrophic consequences.
