What is Heart Bypass Surgery?
Heart Bypass Surgery, or Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG), is a surgical procedure used to restore blood flow to the heart muscle when one or more coronary arteries are severely blocked or narrowed. Surgeons use a healthy blood vessel taken from another part of the body to create a new path around the blocked artery. It is typically recommended for patients with multi-vessel coronary artery disease, left main artery blockage, or those who are not suitable candidates for angioplasty/stenting. The goal is to relieve chest pain (angina), reduce the risk of heart attack, and improve long-term survival.
Who may be considered?
Heart Bypass Surgery may be considered after a qualified specialist reviews your reports and medical history. Suitability varies from person to person and must be assessed by your treating doctor.
How does it work?
The heart is temporarily stopped and a heart-lung bypass machine takes over circulation while the surgeon performs the grafts, allowing precise work in a still, bloodless field.

Usually Not Included

Recovery and follow-up
Most patients spend 1-2 days in the ICU followed by 5-7 days in a standard ward before discharge, with full recovery and return to normal activities typically taking 6-12 weeks alongside a structured cardiac rehabilitation program. Regular follow-up with echocardiograms and medication management is essential for long-term graft health.
Risks
As with any major cardiac surgery, risks include bleeding, infection, irregular heart rhythm, stroke, kidney dysfunction, and in rare cases graft failure or heart attack; these risks are carefully evaluated and minimized through pre-operative assessment and experienced surgical teams.
Alternatives
Depending on the extent and location of blockages, alternatives may include Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (angioplasty with stenting), optimized medical therapy with lifestyle changes, or a hybrid approach combining stenting and minimally invasive bypass; the cardiologist and surgeon will recommend the best option based on angiography findings.

How we selected these doctors
A doctor appears on this page when their listed specialty maps to Cardiovascular Surgery and their profile names heart bypass surgery (or a matching term) among the procedures they perform. Doctors are not ranked by a proprietary "best" score — the order follows years of listed experience (highest first), the same field shown on each doctor's profile. This page does not display aggregate star ratings.
