Why the study?
Does coronary-artery bypass grafting improve long-term survival compared to medical treatment in patients with stable angina?
Does coronary-artery bypass grafting improve long-term survival compared to medical treatment in patients with stable angina?
While CABG does not improve overall 11-year survival in stable angina compared to medical therapy, it offers a significant survival advantage for high-risk patients, particularly those with three-vessel disease and impaired left ventricular function.
