What Is Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery?
Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery, commonly known as CABG surgery, is a proven surgical procedure used to treat coronary artery disease when one or more arteries supplying the heart become narrowed or blocked by plaque build-up. During the procedure, the surgeon takes a healthy blood vessel — often from the leg, arm, or chest wall — and grafts it to bypass the blocked section, allowing oxygen-rich blood to flow freely to the heart muscle again.
CABG surgery can be performed as traditional open-heart surgery or, in select cases, through a minimally invasive or off-pump approach, depending on the patient’s condition, number of blockages, and overall cardiac health following a detailed evaluation.
