Abstract

Diabetes is one of the most prevalent chronic diseases worldwide and is associated with significant morbidity and cost. Patients with diabetes have accelerated development of atherosclerosis caused by multiple factors, including hyperglycemia-induced endothelial injury, dyslipidemia, and inflammation. As a result, patients with diabetes are at increased risk of ischemic events, and cardiovascular disease is the most common cause of death in this population. Patients with diabetes benefit from a multifaceted approach that targets modifiable risk factors of ischemic heart disease. Medical management with antiplatelet therapies along with an early focus on glucose, blood pressure, and cholesterol is extremely important to prevent the development and progression of cardiovascular disease. In addition to medical therapies, patients with advanced atherosclerosis and obstructive coronary artery disease benefit from coronary revascularization. Patients with extensive coronary artery disease benefit from surgical revascularization with coronary artery bypass grafting. However, with the advances in percutaneous revascularization strategies, particularly with drug-eluting stents, coronary stenting is a viable option for revascularization, especially in patients with less extensive coronary artery disease.
