CABG (Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery)

Coronary arteries are small vessels that wrap around the outside of the heart and deliver oxygenated blood directly into its muscle. Without that supply, the muscle weakens and parts of it can die. The problem starts with plaque. Fatty deposits collect on the inner walls of these arteries over years, sometimes decades. The opening gets smaller, blood moves through more slowly, and the heart muscle it feeds begins to struggle. Symptoms aren’t the same in every patient. Some feel chest tightness during physical effort. Others have pain sitting still. A number have already had a heart attack before anyone puts a name to what is happening. In every case the artery is where the problem lives. Medication keeps symptoms under control and slows things down. It doesn’t clear a blocked vessel. A stent can open one up, but not in every patient and not for every type of blockage. When several arteries are involved, or when the anatomy simply doesn’t suit a stent, surgery is the option that remains. CABG gets to the root of it. A healthy vessel taken from the chest wall, inner leg, or forearm gets attached to the heart above and below the blockage. Blood takes this new path. The diseased section gets bypassed entirely. Hospitals across Asia, Europe, and the Middle East hold full international accreditation and carry out this operation at costs well below what patients face at home. That cost difference is what turns CABG (Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery) abroad from something patients consider into something they actually pursue.
