Popis: The gynaecologist today is likely to encounter elderly patients with severe coronary heart disease requiring major gynaecological surgery. The successful outcome in 2 such patients with compromised coronary circulation and impaired left ventricular function emphasized the importance of combined care with the cardiologist and the anaesthetist. The insertion of a Swan-Ganz catheter for close perioperative monitoring is vital. The intra-and postoperative problems are discussed.
