A group of 29 @entity1 with simultaneous @entity301 and @entity1028 were treated following two protocols: Group I, 16 @entity1 had coronary bypass surgery and then @entity1028 repair at a later date. This required two hospitalizations and two separate surgeries. Group II, 11 @entity1 , underwent coronary bypass surgery and repair of @entity1028 ( @entity1028 ) in one sitting. Group III, 2 @entity1 , had PTCA prior to @entity1028 repair. There were 3.1 bypass grafts implanted (Group I), vs 2.9 (Groups II) (ns). All @entity439 were infrarenal and 22 @entity1 had straight tube graft replacement (76%), and seven bifurcated grafts. Two @entity1 with @entity951 also had symptomatic @entity1028 . Period of hospitalization, morbidity, mortality, time of total recovery, hospital costs, and apprehension of @entity1 were analyzed. There was one death in Group I. In this group, the total recovery time was 4.8 months vs 2.4 months for Group II. Hospitalization time was 16.2 days in Group I vs 8.2 days in Group II. The hospital costs were significantly higher in Group I with an average of  58,950 vs  46,553 in Group II. No @entity204 occurred in Group II. It is recommended that if a @entity1 with severe @entity301 requiring surgery also presents with an @entity1028 of more than 5 cm, he/she should have both conditions operated on in one session rather than staggering the procedures. It saves time, cost, @entity148 , and is well tolerated.
