A 36-year-old female was referred as aortitis c AR with atypical coarctation of aorta (obstruction of both subclavian arteries and long stenosis of lt. common carotid artery) and complained of untolerable angina repeatedly in the state of NYHA IV. AVR was performed successfully and CHF symptoms were disappeared. In the operation, pulsatile high flow was maintained using PAD during ECC for the protection of brain and kidney and double patch was used to fix SJM 23 A. Postoperative catheterization showed good cardiac function without valve detachment. To prevent valve detachment, it was most important to control the inflammation sufficiently by steroid hormone before and after the operation.

Myocardial infarction is encountered in diabetic patients more frequently and is usually associated with a higher mortality rate, as compared with the normal population. The authors investigated the relationship between myocardial infarction and diabetes in a group of 408 patients with myocardial infarction, incl. 144 (32%) type 2 diabetics most of them treated by diet or PAD. In the group of diabetics with myocardial infarction a higher incidence of hypertension was recorded and more frequent use of nitrates. The incidence of obesity, smoking angina pectoris, a previous infarction with a pain-free course and family-history were comparable in the two groups. Diabetic patients suffered significantly more frequently from non-Q infarction of the heart muscle (p < 0.5) and infarctions of the anterior wall (p < 0.001). The mortality during hospitalization was 24% in the group of diabetics, while it was 17% in non-diabetic patients.
