Background According to the medical literature, both on-pump and off-pump coronary artery surgery is safe and effective in octogenarians. Objectives The aim of our study was to examine the epidemiology, in-hospital outcomes and long-term follow-up results in octogenarians undergoing off-pump and on-pump coronary artery surgery utilizing nationwide registry data. Methods All octogenarians (� 80 years) enrolled in the Polish National Registry of Cardiac Surgical Procedures (KROK Registry), who underwent isolated coronary surgery between January 2006 and September 2017 were identified. Preoperative data, perioperative complications, hospital mortality and long-term mortality were analyzed. Unadjusted and propensitymatched comparisons were performed between octogenarians undergoing off-pump and on-pump coronary artery bypass surgery.
