Cardiac bypass surgery, also known as coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), is a procedure used to treat coronary artery disease (CAD) when the arteries supplying blood to the heart become narrowed or blocked. In this surgery, healthy blood vessels from other parts of your body are used to create a bypass around the blocked arteries, restoring blood flow to the heart muscle and improving your heart’s function.
This procedure is often recommended when lifestyle changes, medications, or other non-invasive treatments are no longer enough to keep your heart healthy.
At Mercy Hospital of Buffalo’s Heart Center, we understand that heart health is a crucial to your overall health.
