Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is one of the most commonly performed open heart surgeries. Generally patients with severe coronary heart disease undergo this type of surgery. In this type of surgery a healthy artery or vein from the body is grafted or connected to the blocked coronary artery. It is commonly referred to as bypass surgery or a heart bypass surgery. CABG is done if the blockages in the heart cannot be treated with other procedures like angioplasty or it is done on an emergency basis during a heart attack.
