BACKGROUND: We investigated the effect of concomitant @entity1653 on @entity260 after cardiac operations. Also studied was the intraoperative and perioperative management and long-term outcome of such @entity1 . METHODS: We retrospectively evaluated 16 cardiac surgical @entity1 with @entity1653 between January 1996 and July 2007. Neurologic outcome, incidence of transient @entity51 , and long-term follow-up focusing on freedom from any cardiac or neurosurgical intervention were assessed. RESULTS: Five @entity1 and 11 @entity1 with a concomitant diagnosis of @entity1653 underwent cardiac operations using extracorporeal circulation. One @entity1 received additional @entity4 prophylaxis by intravenous @entity619 . All @entity1 were discharged home in good physical condition. Data on long-term survival were available on 14 @entity1 , with 12 alive. Postoperatively, 2 @entity1 died from @entity583 at 26.8 months and 2 from metastatic @entity694 at 57.9 months. @entity16 were observed in 2 @entity1 , comprising one @entity64 after intervention for aortic dissection and one @entity1031 event 2 weeks after biologic mitral valve replacement due to anticoagulation disorders. No @entity1653 -related adverse event was observed. CONCLUSIONS: The presence of @entity1653 does not appear to be a risk factor for @entity1 undergoing cardiac operations. No @entity1653 -related neurologic sequelae were documented postoperatively. Neurosurgical consultation should be obtained in all @entity1 preoperatively.
