Key result
Patients aged ≤ 45 years undergoing isolated CABG had significantly lower long-term mortality compared to older patients (4.6% vs. 15.0%, p=0.002), with no difference in in-hospital mortality.

Young patients (≤ 45 years) undergoing isolated CABG have different clinical and surgical characteristics compared to older patients, and while in-hospital mortality is similar, they experience significantly lower long-term mortality.
Trzeciak et al. (2017) conducted a cohort in Isolated coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) (n=8,196). Age ≤ 45 years vs. Age > 45 years was evaluated on Long-term mortality (p=0.002). Patients aged ≤ 45 years undergoing isolated CABG had significantly lower long-term mortality compared to older patients (4.6% vs. 15.0%, p=0.002), with no difference in in-hospital mortality.
