in the heart who received coronary artery
bypass grafting fared better than those whose arteries were opened with balloon angioplasty and stents
in a study presented at the American College of Cardiology's 64th Annual Scientific Session.
The findings echo past studies, which have shown patients with multiple narrowed arteries have better outcomes with coronary artery
bypass grafting, also known as CABG or heart
bypass surgery, than with angioplasty, also known as percutaneous coronary intervention or PCI, a less - invasive option
in which a stent is inserted to hold the arteries open.
