The effect of the body size on the CABG outcome is less clear. There is ongoing debate about obesity as a risk factor for adverse outcomes after cardiovascular procedures. The goal of this retrospective study is to evaluate the in hospital and early postoperative outcomes in severe obese obese and normal-slightly obese female patients after CABG. Methods In a four year period a total of 427 female patients underwent isolated CABG under cardiopulmonary bypass. The patients were allocated into three groups according to the Body Mass Index BMI as follows group 1 severe obese patients BMI 35 group 2 obese patients 30 BMI 35 group 3 normal-slightly obese patients BMI 30 Results The patients in group 3 were older than the group1 and group 2 65 6 8 3 year vs 63 01 8 0 and 63 57 8 4 year p 0 05 . In group 1 diabetic patients were more than in group 2 and group 3 respectively 54 4 vs 43 4 and 40 p 0 05 . Urgent operation was more in group 1 than in group 2 and 3 respectively 37 6 vs 17 2 and 21 2 p 0 05 . The patients in group 3 had significantly greater postoperative drainage at 24 h compared with values in group 1 and group 2 647 142 ml vs. 539 169 ml and 582 133 ml p 0 05 . Mortality rate in group 1 was 0 8 0 in group 2 and 1 2 in group 3 respectively. Wound problem has occured in 41 patients 9 6 .The percentage of postoperative wound problems was higher in group 1 but did not show statiscially difference. Following discharge a total of 43 10 1 patients re-hospitalized within 30 days. .
