What is coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG)?

Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is an operation that restores blood flow to the heart muscle in coronary artery disease. A graft (a vascular prosthesis or one of the patient’s own vessels) creates a new path for the blood around narrowed or blocked coronary arteries.

CABG is one of the most effective ways to prolong life, relieve chest pain, prevent a heart attack and restore quality of life.
