Abstract

Since the first report of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in patients with end-stage renal disease in 1974, numerous reports have documented the feasibility of CABG in patients with chronic renal diseases. Patients with chronic renal failure often have comorbid disorders such as hypertension, and diabetes mellitus, each with their own complications and associated impact on both short and long-term survivals. In addition, infection and sepsis have been identified as significant causes of morbidity and mortality in most series of patients with end-stage renal disease undergoing cardiac surgical procedure. As a result of these and other factors such as perioperative volume and electrolyte disturbances, patients with chronic renal failures are at an increased risk of complication and mortality after CABG. We report 3 cases of "Off-pump" CABG in the chronic renal failure patients.
