Strategizing the Treatment Plan for Managing Comorbid Cervical Carcinoma With Coronary Artery Disease Using Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting and Definitive Oncotherapy
Abstract
Cancer and cardiovascular disease are the two most common reasons of mortality all over the world. It is common for both diseases to coexist because of the sharing of similar demographic features and risk factors such as obesity, old age, and smoking. Here, we present the case report of a patient with cervical carcinoma along with significant coronary artery disease, the purpose of which is to review planning such as considering percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) vs coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) or on-pump CABG vs off-pump CABG, the flowchart of management plans such as which disease needs to be addressed first, that is, whether it is the coronary artery disease or the carcinoma of the cervix, and the difficulties associated with the management of coexisting conditions.
