- CABG, introduced in the 1960s, became a popular surgical procedure for directly restoring blood flow to the heart, with over 20 million operations performed worldwide.
- The procedure has been extensively studied, leading to improved techniques, conduit options, and patient selection, although debates about the best practices continue.
- This historical overview examines the development of CABG in relation to other heart treatments, highlighting its foundations, advancements, and future prospects.
Article Abstract
Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) was introduced in the 1960s as the first procedure for direct coronary artery revascularization and rapidly became one of the most common surgical procedures worldwide, with an overall total of more than 20 million operations performed. CABG continues to be the most common cardiac surgical procedure performed and has been one of the most carefully studied therapies. Best CABG techniques, optimal bypass conduits, and appropriate patient selection have been rigorously tested in landmark clinical trials, some of which have resolved controversy and most of which have stoked further debate and trials. The evolution of CABG cannot be properly portrayed without presenting it in the context of the parallel development of percutaneous coronary intervention. In this Historical Perspective, we a provide a broad overview of the history of coronary revascularization with a focus on the foundations, evolution, best evidence, and future directions of CABG.

An anomalous origin of the right coronary artery from the opposite sinus (R- ACAOS) with interarterial course is a very rare congenital anomaly with an increased risk of sudden cardiac death. A 29-year-old woman was admitted for exertional angina pectoris. A coronary computed tomography angiography with 3D multiplanar reconstruction revealed an R-ACAOS running between the aorta and pulmonary artery with high anatomical features and no ischemia-induced at the stress test.
