May inform individualized CABG technique selection; extends comparative evidence on CPB-related risks in complex cases.
Does off-pump CABG compared to on-pump CABG improve postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting?
The choice between off-pump and on-pump CABG involves a trade-off between perioperative risks (lower with off-pump) and long-term revascularization success (better with on-pump), requiring individualized patient selection.
