We hereby report a successfully managed case of 64 -year-old male patient with a history of Rheumatic Heart Disease with Severe Mitral Stenosis & Severe Aortic Stenosis in Atrial Fibrillation with type 2 DM &HTN who underwent DVR (Mitral Valve Replacement & Aortic Valve Replacement) through median sternotomy approach under General Anesthesia & Cardio Pulmonary Bypass (CPB) who had MACE during early postoperative period A great awareness of MACE and its variable presentations, timely identification and definitive management of such life-threatening complication is vital to avoid death which is a night mare for the Anaesthesiologist and the patient.
