CABG
When the coronary arteries of your heart have blockages and blood is unable to flow easily to your heart, you may need to undergo coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG/bypass). CABG/bypass surgery involves using an artery and/or a vein (called a graft) to bypass these blockages. Bypassing the blockage improves the blood supply to your heart muscle.
