At our Cardiovascular Center, we perform coronary artery bypass surgery based on each patient’s condition, age, and overall health, guided by clinical experience and established evidence.
What it is
Coronary artery disease occurs when plaque buildup (atherosclerosis) narrows the coronary arteries, reducing blood flow to the heart muscle and potentially leading to ischemia.
Our treatment
For patients with advanced coronary artery disease, we perform coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).
Grafts are selected based on each patient’s condition and may include the internal thoracic artery, radial artery, and saphenous vein.
How we individualize surgery
-
Younger patients:
Arterial grafts are used preferentially to improve long-term durability. -
Elderly patients or those with comorbidities:
Off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) may be used to reduce surgical stress.
Appointment
Appointments are required in principle. A referral letter from another medical institution is recommended but not mandatory.
