Outcomes of Concomitant Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting in Patients With Infective Endocarditis: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
It is current practice to perform concomitant coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in patients with infective endocarditis who have relevant coronary artery disease. However, CABG may add complexity to the operation. We performed a systematic review and a meta-analysis of studies that presented outcomes from patients who underwent valve surgery because of infective endocarditis with or without concomitant CABG. Three databases were assessed. Perioperative mortality was the primary outcome. Long-term mortality and postoperative stroke were the secondary outcomes.

Medical malpractice in aortic valve and mitral valve replacement surgery in North America
CONCLUSIONS: In addition to excellent surgeon patient/family communication, administering surgical treatment in a timely manner, diagnosing and acting on concomitant medical conditions, and close patient monitoring may diminish medical malpractice litigation involving aortic and mitral valve replacement operations.PMID:34338496 | DOI:10.23736/S0021-9509.21.11945-7
