Indian data about the prevalence ofCoronary artery disease(CAD) in patients with valvular heart disease are limited. Prevalence of CAD in valvular heart disease is unknown in North Eastern India AIM: To study the prevalence of Coronary artery disease in valvular heart disease and to compare the prevalence of cardiovascular risk factor and Coronary artery disease prevalence in rheumatic and non rheumaticvalvular heart disease Materials And Methods:We prospectively collected data of valvular heart disease above 35 years who were scheduled for valve surgery from December 2011 to November 2013..A record was made of each patient's age, sex, history of prior cardiac ischemic events or myocardial infarction, diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia and smoking history and past or current drug treatment. Selective coronary arteriography was performed by the Judkins technique The patients were divided into two groups based on etiology (rheumatic and nonrheumatic). A comparasion of clinical paramaters between two groups were obtained Results:A total of 126 valvular disease cases were included in the study. Of the 126, 108 cases were rheumatic valvular heart disease (85.71%) and 18 were non-rheumatic valvular heart disease (14.29%). Mean age of patients were 50.59 years. Of 126 patients, 18 had significant coronary artery disease, giving overall prevalence 14.28% of coronary artery disease. Coronary artery disease was significantly more common among non-rheumatic valvular heart disease (44.44%) in comparison to rheumatic valvular heart disease (9.26%) patients (p<0.001). Angina . diabetes mellitus, hypertension and dyslipidemia are significantly high among non-rheumatic (p<0.001 for ,Angina DM and HTN and p=0.001for dyslipidemia). Non-rheumatic group patients were insignificantly more smokers (p=0.081). All atrial fibrillation patients were rheumatic Conclusion:This data represents the first reported prevalence data of CAD in valvular heart disease in North Eastern India. We observed a overall prevalence 14.28% of coronary artery disease in valvular heart disease and also observed a higher prevalence of cardiovascular risk factor in non rheumaticvalvular heart disease ,which suggest that cardiovascular risk factor play a important part in pathogenesis of non rheumaticvalvular heart disease.
