A second CABG is extremely rare and the usual first choice is stents. Second surgeries are higher risk because the patient is older, may have additional health issues and has previously undergone CABG surgery. Other issues include scar tissue from the first procedure and the harvesting of satisfactory donor blood vessels.
Has your surgeon proposed this to you?
