    Journal Article

    Patients with multivessel coronary artery disease were randomly assigned to PCI with everolimus-eluting stents or CABG. At 2 years, the composite of death, myocardial infarction, or target-vessel revascularization occurred more frequently in the PCI group. Randomized trials and observational studies have shown that the rates of most adverse clinical outcomes among patients with multivessel coronary artery disease are lower after coronary-artery bypass grafting (CABG) than after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). 1 – 7 Current clinical guidelines thus recommend CABG as the preferred revascularization strategy, particularly in patients with complex coronary lesions and without excessive operative risk. 8 , 9 However, previous trials may have been limited by their use of first-generation drug-eluting stents. Although these stents reduced the rate of restenosis, their use was associated with a relatively high rate of stent-related thrombotic events. 10 Results from the Synergy between . . .
