Abstract in brief

  • A study compared two treatments, drug-eluting stents (PCI) and bypass surgery (CABG), for patients with less complex left main coronary artery disease, finding that PCI was not significantly worse than CABG over three years.
  • The primary measure was a combination of death, stroke, or heart attack, with results showing similar rates between the two groups, supporting PCI as a potential alternative in certain cases.
  • Secondary outcomes and detailed analyses indicated no significant differences in major events within 30 days and at three years, though complex coronary anatomy was assessed to select appropriate candidates for each treatment.
