THE ROLE OF THE CORONARY ANGIOGRAPHY IN TREATMENT OF ANEURISMATIC AORTA OF THE FIRST TYPE

Abstract

In modern cardiology many invasive methods are successfully replaced by the non-invasive. At open heart surgeries the coronary angiography is considered obligatory at patients of advanced age. At aneurismatic aorta the coronary angiography is still a question. The retrospective analysis of 152 cases of aneurismatic aorta of the first type is done. Coronary angiography promoted increase of frequency of revealing of accompanying injuries of coronary arteries, lead to the reduction in death rate in the early postoperative period. In the long-term follow-up period patients who underwent surgery without coronary angiography needed invasive interventions concerning ischemic heart disease more often.
