Coronary Artery Bypass Graft
Abbreviation: CABG
Definition
Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) is a surgical procedure that restores blood flow to the heart by bypassing blocked or narrowed coronary arteries. CABG involves taking a blood vessel from another part of the body and using it to create a new pathway for blood to bypass the blocked or narrowed arteries, improving blood supply to the heart muscle.
