Overview

Understanding coronary artery disease.

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of death worldwide. Atherosclerotic plaque narrows the coronary arteries, reducing blood flow to the heart muscle. Treatment ranges from medical therapy to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI/stenting) to coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).

Why It Matters

Why you need a second opinion.

The CABG vs PCI decision is one of the highest-stakes choices in cardiology. Studies consistently show that patients with complex multivessel disease and left main disease have better long-term survival with CABG, yet many are offered stenting without a surgical evaluation. A Heart Team approach — as mandated by ACC/AHA guidelines — is rarely implemented in practice.

Critical Decisions

Key decisions for coronary artery disease.

CABG vs PCI based on SYNTAX score and anatomy
Complete vs incomplete revascularization strategy
Arterial grafting strategy (bilateral internal mammary)
Hybrid approach (CABG + PCI) candidacy
Optimal medical therapy as alternative to intervention
Risk Factors

What affects your risk.

SYNTAX score for anatomic complexity
Left main disease extent and calcification
Diabetes mellitus (favors CABG)
Left ventricular dysfunction
Prior PCI with stent failure
