Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery

• Fat, cholesterol and other substances clog the coronary arteries and so the flow of blood to the heart vessels becomes slow leading to chest pain or heart attack. Increasing the blood flow can reduce the risk of heart attack.

• Around the blocked part of the coronary artery the surgeon make a bypass by using a healthy blood vessel from another part of the body.

• The open end of an artery detached from the chest wall can be attached below the blocked area of the coronary artery.

• A large vein is taken from the leg, one end of which is attached to the aorta of the heart while the other end is grafted just below the blocked area of the coronary artery.

• These two bypasses ensure free flow of blood to the heart muscle.

Depending on the blockage of the coronary artery one, two, three or more bypass grafts can de done on a patient.
