Research by Yevhenii Kozlov · Co-Founder of Bookimed Updated 8 October 2026 Sources linked throughout At a glance CABG routes blood around narrowed coronary arteries using grafts. It can relieve persistent angina and improve prognosis in selected coronary disease; the number and location of diseased arteries, diabetes and heart function shape the choice. More than one treatment route Medicines remain part of care. CABG and coronary stents are alternatives for different patterns of artery disease.
