Abstract
The increasing number of patients with diabetes in the structure of comorbid cardiothoracic patients necessitates a more detailed study of the pathophysiological mechanisms of the modifying infl uence of diabetes, taking into account new scientific data. This allows for a more systematic view of processes that were previously the prerogative of specialists. Content. A modern perspective on the pathophysiological mechanisms of diabetes on cardiac structures is presented, with a description of the two most signifi cant pathological syndromes — diabetic cardiomyopathy and changes in the morphological structure of the atrioventricular valve leafl ets. The expansion of the endocrinologist’s role in the examination and treatment of cardiothoracic patients is justifi ed. Conclusion. A systemic approach to the problem of diabetes in cardiothoracic surgery, incorporating a multidisciplinary approach and active involvement of endocrinologists at all stages of the treatment process, will improve treatment outcomes for cardiothoracic patients and reduce their postoperative recovery times.
