Coronary Revascularization Guideline: Why STS and AATS Did Not Endorse

Society of Thoracic Surgeons - Research

Concerns discussed include: the devaluation of both coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) as a treatment option and the evidence supporting bypass surgery as a preferred approach in select high-risk patient populations, and the superior long-term benefits of CABG versus percutaneous coronary intervention in decreasing repeat reintervention.
