Abstract

Decision-making between percutaneous and surgical revascularization in patients with multivessel coronary artery disease (CAD) is challenging. Current guidelines recommend surgery as the preferred revascularization strategy in patients with multivessel disease, and the 5-year SYNTAX trial results published this year further validates this. However, last-generation drug-eluting stents might challenge surgery in the contemporary setting.
