Abstract
Background: There are no safe operations in cardiac surgery. Every
operation can possibly go wrong. We therefore retrospectively
evaluated all cardiac operations lasting more than 300 minutes of
bypass time at our institution to evaluate outcome and factors
relevant for perioperative mortality and morbidity. Methods: We
retrospectively included patients receiving cardiac operations or
operations at the great vessels with cardiopulmonary bypass times
above 300 minutes operated from 1/1/1996 until 12/1/2012 in our
study. Patients receiving lung or heart or combined heart and lung
transplantations were excluded from our study. 240 patients were
included in our study. CPB times, clamp times and operation times
were 356.53 ± 55.06 min, 166.18± 65.95 min, 500.47± 96.56 min
respectively. Euro score of patients was 14.92 ± 15.35 (range 0.64-
79.48).
