They differentiated by character and duration of wound process. Pericarditis took place in 288 patients. The syndrome of system inflammation reaction was noted in 47,9% of patients, a sepsis (sometimes severe sepsis) was in 14,3%. Complications in postoperative period were determined by posthypoxic and hemic hypoxia, coagulopathy. They were manifested by myocardial ischemia and thromboembolic complications. An acute myocardial infarction took place in 29 (9,8%) cases and rhythm and conductivity abnormalities were in 23 (7,8%) patients. The circulatory failure with clinical picture of pulmonary edema was developed in 12 (4,1%) cases. The lethality consisted of 44 (15%) patients.
