Progression and Regression of Disease in the Native Coronary Circulation and Bypass Graft Surgery

  • Conference paper
Prognosis of Coronary Heart Disease Progression of Coronary Arteriosclerosis

Abstract

There is relatively little information on the progression and regression of disease in bypass grafts over a long period after coronary artery bypass graft surgery. This study was undertaken to document angiographically demonstrable changes in bypass status, the relation to the disease in the native coronary arteries, and the clinical factors possibly affecting this process.
