Cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CBP) is essential for different cardiac procedures in order to perform surgery with a clear sight field.To safely perform surgery with CPB and preserve brain, kidney, and patient tissue from ischemic damage, cold cardioplegia, and mild to deep hypothermia are induced during the operation.Cryoglobulinemia is a hematological/infective-related disease (in certain cases idiopathic) in which temperature-dependent antibodies tend to aggregate and form emboli in the vascular system causing tissue damage if exposed to low temperature.The patient with cryoglobulinemia (known and unknown) can be at risk of a major ischemic event during CPB and induced hypothermia.This article’s aim is to evaluate the present scientific literature in order to understand how, in years, the therapeutic or preventive approach, is evolving, and to analyze and make improvements to the management of a cryoglobulinemic patient who must undergo elective or emergency cardiac surgery.In the last part of our article, we expose our single-center experience during a 32-month-long period of survey.In all cases, our medical team (anesthesiologists, perfusionists, and cardiac surgeons) opted for a normothermic cardiopulmonary bypass to lower the risk of cryoglobulin-associated complications.In our experience, along with therapeutic intervention to lower the cryoglobulin titer, normothermic management of cardiopulmonary bypass is as safe as hypothermic management.Notwithstanding our results, further studies with a larger population are needed to confirm this perioperative management in a cardiac surgery setting.
