Coronary artery bypass grafting
The patient's own blood vessel is used to build a new route beside the narrowed coronary artery so blood bypasses the blockage. Often chosen for multi-vessel disease and diabetic patients. Some hospitals can do minimally invasive or robot-assisted bypass.
| Advantages | Limitations |
|---|---|
| Good long-term results for complex multi-vessel disease | Requires an open chest or a small chest-wall incision, and recovery is slower than with a stent |
