Coronary artery bypass grafting in a patient with Gilbert syndrome

Biz bu çalışmamızda; koroner arter bypass greftleme operasyonu yaptığımız koroner arter hastasında, Gilbert sendromuna bağlı postoperatif sarılığı sunduk. Sarılık belirti ve bulguları post-operatif birinci günde başlayıp,postoperatif yedinci günde kendiliğinden kayboldu.Gilbertsendromunun tanısı,özellikleri ve ilişkili diğer anormallik-ler ile birlikte anestezi ve kardiyopulmoner bypass’ın bili- rübin metabolizmasına etkileri tartışıldı.

Gilbert sendromlu bir hastada coroner arter bypass greftlemesi

Here in we present a case of a postoperative jaundicedue to Gilbert’s syndrome in a patient who was suffering from coronary artery disease and undergone coronary artery bypass grafting operation. Signs and symptoms of jaundice developed on the postoperative first day and resolved spontaneously after 7 days. The diagnosis and characteristics of Gilbert’s syndrome and other relatedabnormalities and factors relevant to anesthesia and cardiopulmonary by-pass, which affect bilirubin metabolism,are discussed.
