Coronary Artery Bypass Graft PatencyTownsville General Hospital, Townsville Queensland Australia The long-term success of myocardial revascularization depends on continued patency of the bypass conduit or the artery treated by angioplasty. Patency after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery is determined by surgical factors, including the type of conduit used and by pharmacotherapy in the postoperative period. The purpose of this review is to provide an overview of factors that may contribute to improved or decreased coronary artery bypass graft patency.
