Heart Bypass Surgery (CABG) in India
A surgical procedure to divert blood around clogged arteries to improve blood flow to the heart.
Treatment Overview
Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) is a quaternary surgical procedure performed to treat severe coronary heart disease. It involves harvesting a healthy blood vessel (graft) from the leg, chest, or arm, and attaching it beyond the blocked coronary artery. This creates an alternative pathway for oxygenated blood to reach the heart muscles.
