We report our clinical observation on the management under extracorporeal circulation of a patient with renal insufficiency with a high-flow arteriovenous fistula. This is a 59-year-old man who was referred to us for surgical treatment of ischemic coronary artery disease in a context of anuric chronic renal failure. Hypothermia at 32°C is started from the start in CEC due to hyperflow at the level of the arteriovenous fistula. We performed two coronary artery bypasses of the marginal and IVA via the two internal thoracic arteries. The patient is hemofiltered in order to avoid hyperkalaemia and possibly avoid fluid overload related to filling per CEC. The clamping time was 71 minutes and the SCC lasted 141 minutes. There was no homologous transfusion in the operating room. It turns out that the input/output balance is zero at the end of the CEC. The postoperative course was simple.展开更多
