Hi Use
Thanks for posting your query on Healthcare Magic
If EKG show some ishemia it is MUST to evaluate cardiac status for planed surgery.
You forgot to mention age of your auntie I guess she is in the age group of coronary artery disease.
TMT or Dobutamine stress echo is first screening test and if positive then further investgations and interventions can be planed.
Without fixing coronary artery disease may create problem duing or after operation
Hope this information help you regarding planning of you Auntie's Kidney surgery
Good Luck
