Concomitant off-pump myocardial revascularization and pheochromocytoma resection

Abstract

Surgical management of patients with coexisting ischemic heart disease and pheochromocytoma remains challenging. We present one such case in which hybrid myocardial revascularization (angioplasty with stenting and off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting) and resection of pheochromocytoma were undertaken. Unusual features included simultaneous coronary artery surgery and tumor resection and, in particular, coronary artery surgery being performed without cardiopulmonary bypass.
