- The mitral valve surgery and aortic valve surgery is performed to repair and replace the damaged valves (aortic valve and mitral valve) with an artificial valve and to make it functional.
- Redo Coronary Artery Bypass Graft is required only in a small percentage of patients who had previously undergone CABG but experience constant angina, progression of disease, new blocks or sometimes re-blockage of the graft or the coronary arteries.
- This generally occurs few years after the primary CABG.
- Redo CABG is required in symptomatic patients where surgical revascularization is indicated.
- In comparison to PCI, CABG Redo Surgery is preferred in patients with more disease vein grafts and/or low cardiac function.
- Redo CABG is also preferred in patients with severe symptoms or extensive ischemia.
- In patients with freshly occluded saphenous vein graft (SVG), CABG is indicated if the native artery appears unsuitable for PCI or when many of the important grafts are occluded.
