  • Title: [Successful cardiac surgery using normothermic cardiopulmonary bypass in an elderly patient with cryoglobulinemia].
    Author: Murata S, Tabayashi K, Shinozaki S, Shimizu M, Ito T, Konnai T.
    Journal: Nihon Kyobu Geka Gakkai Zasshi; 1995 Jan; 43(1):65-8. PubMed ID: 7884265.
    Abstract:
    The case of 70-year-old woman with cryoglobulinemia who underwent urgent operation for angina pectoris and mitral regurgitation is reported. Three bypass grafts and mitral valvuloplasty were performed under normothermic cardiopulmonary bypass with continuous warm blood cardioplegia. The postoperative course was uneventful. Normothermic cardioplegia requires further study as a technique for managing patients with cold autoimmune diseases such as cryoglobulinemia who require cardiopulmonary bypass.
