Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery (CABG) is a surgical procedure to treat severe coronary artery disease. While it does not cure the underlying cause of the disease, it reduces heart disease-related deaths and also alleviates symptoms like chest pain (angina) or shortness of breath.
During the procedure, a surgeon creates a new pathway for blood to flow around the blocked artery in the heart. This is achieved by taking a healthy blood vessel, typically from the chest or leg, and connecting it to the coronary artery below the blockage. This bypass improves the blood flow to the heart muscles.
Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery in Mukundapur, is often performed as an emergency intervention when other treatment options fail to treat a heart attack. Being an open-heart surgery, CABG carries higher risks, especially when performed as an emergency intervention. It is important to note that while CABG improves blood flow and relieves symptoms, it does not prevent future blocks in the heart arteries.
