Between June 1968 and April 1991, 75 patients who had undergone coronary
angiography underwent repair of a postinfarction ventricular septal defect.
Group 1 (n = 33) includes patients who had two- or three- vessel serious
(> 75% narrowing) proximal coronary artery disease and underwent
complete revascularization in addition to repair of the ventricular septal
defect. Group 2 (n = 19) patients also had two- or three-vessel coronary
artery disease but bypass grafting was not performed; only the ventricular
defect was repaired. Group 3 (n = 23) patients had only single-vessel
coronary artery disease that corresponded to the region of the infarct;
they underwent ventricular septal defect repair only. Follow-up of hospital
survivors was 96% complete at a mean of 86.2 months (range, 1 to 288
months). Hospital mortality after ventricular septal defect repair was
21.2% in the cohort with bypassed coronary artery disease (group 1), 26.3%
in those with unbypassed disease (group 2), and 26.1% in those with only
single- vessel coronary artery disease (group 3) (p = 0.88). With follow-up
after 5 and 10 years, the actuarial survival was 72.2% +/- 8% and 47.8% +/-
10%, respectively, in the bypassed group, 29.2% +/- 11% and 0%,
respectively, in the unbypassed group, and 52.2% +/- 10% and 36.5% +/- 11%,
respectively, in the cohort with single-vessel disease. Bypassing
associated coronary artery disease significantly increased long-term
survival when compared with patients with unbypassed coronary artery
disease (p = 0.0015).
