Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
This paper describes the management of three patients for elective surgery with drug-eluting stents in the coronary circulation. The risks posed at the time of surgery by such patients include acute coronary syndromes, as a result of stent thrombosis, after cessation of anti-platelet therapy and excessive bleeding from continued anti-platelet therapy. We describe a regime for the management of such patients that successfully avoided these risks in three patients with paclitaxel drug-eluting stents requiring elective non-cardiac surgery. |
