Event free CABG was superior to MT in terms of the primary end points, reaching a significant 44% reduction The primary end points were total mortality, Q-wave myocardial infarction, or refractory angina requiring revascularization.

27 Left Main Disease

28 Left main stenosis PCI vs. CAVG LM is a potentially attractive target for PCI because of its large diameter and proximal position Two important pathophysiological features may mitigate against the success of PCI: (i) bifurcation Up to 80% of LM disease involves the bifurcation known to be at particularly high risk of restenosis multivessel (ii) Up to 80% of LM patients also have multivessel CAD where CABG, as already discussed, may already offer a survival advantage.

In all pt s s without and 30,218 pt s s with LM stenosis,, the respective mortalities were 1.5% and 2.5% (respective predicted elective mortalities 0.9% and 1.5%). In all pt s s without or 26, 020 pt s s with DM, the respective mortalities were 1.6% and 2.6% (respective predicted elective mortalities 1.0% and 1.6%).

55 Heart Team Heart Team - cardiac surgeon, and an interventional cardiologist. Myocardial revascularization should in general not be performed at the time of diagnostic angiography, thereby allowing the Heart Team sufficient time to assess all available information, reach a consensus, and clearly explain and discuss the findings with the patient.

63 Controversial Definition 1: Traditional revascularization was defined as all diseased arterial systems receiving at least one graft insertion. Definition 2: Functional revascularization was defined as bypassing all diseased primary coronary segments (LAD,LCX,RCA) Nondiseased vessel : <1.5 mm in diameter regardless of the degree of stenosis, or with a stenosis of <50%.
