Methods/Results
Eight patients underwent anaortic OPCAB and transfemoral TAVR during the
same anesthetic in a hybrid operating room. Seven patients with
multi-vessel disease had anaortic OPCAB via a sternotomy using composite
grafts, one patient with LAD disease had anaortic OPCAB using a Da Vinci
assisted MIDCAB approach. All patients then had an Edwards Sapien 3 TAVR
placed percutaneously via the common femoral artery. There was no
thirty-day mortality or CVA in the series and all patients were
discharged to home or a rehabilitation facility on day 4-13.
