Abstract

To analyze long-term outcomes of CABG in young patients, incidence and structure of adverse cardiovascular events depending on patients' age. There were 175 young patients (up to 44 years old in accordance with WHO classification) who underwent CABG for the period from 2006 to 2016. The control group included 175 patients aged 45 years and older who were randomly selected among patients operated in the same period. Overall long-term follow-up period was 81.9±15.75 months (≈ 6.8 years). Data on long-term survival and adverse cardiovascular events were available in 86.3% of patients in general sample and 72.6% of young patients. Young patients undergoing CABG were usually characterized by the absence of severe concomitant diseases, moderate coronary atherosclerosis by SYNTAX Score scale, high percentage of left ventricular aneurysm and previous PCI. Incidence and structure of in-hospital and long-term adverse cardiovascular events in young and older patients confirmed satisfactory results of CABG regardless age.
