Abstract
Cardiac surgery in patients with a prior pneumonectomy has a high prevalence of postoperative complications and mortality. We have successfully performed a mitral valve replacement and tricuspid annuloplasty in a 71-year-old man who had a left pneumonectomy 33 years previously due to pulmonary tuberculosis. We report this case with a literature review on the issue of the prevention perioperative pulmonary impairment, the technique of mitral valve exposure during surgery and postoperative rhythm disturbance.
