Sadly, It is fashionable today to cover the arteries as if they were a pipe plastered with silly potty, perhaps due to the low complexity of the procedure. Unfortunately, I do not believe that 5 to 10 year mortality accompanies this trend. But yes friend the indications that I remember for bypass surgery are:
- Important left main coronary artery stenosis.
- Equivalent to 70% of LAD and circumflex.
- Three-vessel disease.
- Two-vessel disease and fraction <50%
- Angina pectoris refractory to non-invasive treatment.
