All patients were symptomatic due to primary cardiac disease. In-hospital mortality rate was seven times higher in those with Covid-19 (22.2%) while the non Covid-19 patients had a rate of (3.4%) (p<0.0001). Conclusion: Cardiac surgery is inevitable in symptomatic patients and can be done even with the risk of transmission and death.
