In multivessel coronary artery disease, a “state‐of‐the‐art” randomized clinical trial of revascularization is needed

Abstract: Based on this meta-analysis of primarily observational data, complete revascularization (CR) is associated with a reduced risk of death, MI, and repeat revascularization in patients with multivessel coronary artery disease (MVCAD) as compared with incomplete revascularization (IR). Given the current state of evidence, the likelihood of achieving complete revascularization should influence whether PCI or CABG is the best strategy in patients with MVCAD. Given the lack of randomized trials in this area, more rob… Show more

“…To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study that evaluated the optimal revascularization strategy for non-small non-LAD lesions during one-stop HCR surgery in the MVCAD population. MVCAD accounts for 40%-60% of patients undergoing CAG and has significantly worse prognosis compared to single-vessel disease [7]. Traditional CABG is recommended by the current guidelines as the gold standard of treatment for MVCAD patients [1,8].…”

“…MVCAD is documented in 40-60% of coronary angiography patients and has a poorer prognosis compared with single-vessel disease. 13 The optimal extent of myocardial revascularization in patients with MVCAD is controversial and consensus is lacking. According to guideline recommendations, conventional CABG is considered as the standard technique for the management of MVCAD.…”

“…For patients with diabetes and severe multivessel CAD, CABG is still the standard of care based on the SYNTAX extended Survival study (SYNTAXES) 25 . Recent studies have shown that preoperative assessments using the newly developed SYNTAX score II 2020 could be useful for identifying patients with multivessel CAD who might benefit from a contemporary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) strategy with a favorable outcome compared with the traditional CABG strategy 26 28 . In addition, multivessel CAD was reported to be a strong risk factor for recurrent cardiovascular events in patients with stable post-myocardial infarction despite optimal medical treatment in a Danish nationwide register-based cohort study 29 .…”
