Key result
Coronary artery bypass grafting improves long-term survival in patients with coronary artery disease and left ventricular dysfunction, though optimal surgical strategies require individualized approaches.
Why the study?
Does coronary artery bypass grafting improve long-term outcomes in patients with coronary artery disease and left ventricular dysfunction compared to PCI or medical therapy?

CABG remains a central revascularization strategy for improving long-term prognosis in patients with CAD and severe LV dysfunction, though tailored approaches are necessary for concurrent ischemic mitral regurgitation and surgical techniques.

Hirotaka Inaba (2015) conducted a review in Coronary artery disease with left ventricular dysfunction. Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) vs. Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) / Medical therapy was evaluated. Coronary artery bypass grafting improves long-term survival in patients with coronary artery disease and left ventricular dysfunction, though optimal surgical strategies require individualized approaches.
