Surgical treatment of simultaneous coronary and carotid disease is still controversial, because of the high risk of morbidity and mortality after combined or staged carotid artery endoarterectomy and the coronary artery bypass grafting approach. We report the first 10 patients with concomitant coronary and carotid disease successfully treated with an alternative strategy consisting of simultaneous hybrid revascularization by carotid artery stenting and coronary artery bypass grafting.

Abstract
Surgical treatment of simultaneous coronary and carotid disease is still controversial, because of the high risk of morbidity and mortality after combined or staged carotid artery endoarterectomy and the coronary artery bypass grafting approach. We report the first 10 patients with concomitant coronary and carotid disease successfully treated with an alternative strategy consisting of simultaneous hybrid revascularization by carotid artery stenting and coronary artery bypass grafting.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
