Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery

Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery (CABG) is a procedure used to improve blood flow to the heart. It’s performed when coronary arteries are blocked or narrowed, often due to heart disease. During the surgery, a surgeon takes a healthy blood vessel from another part of the body and uses it to create a new pathway (or bypass) for blood to reach the heart. This helps relieve chest pain, reduces the risk of heart attack, and enhances overall heart function. The goal is to restore proper blood circulation, improving the patient’s quality of life and heart health.
