Abstract
Objectives: To determine the association between previous percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and results after coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG). Background: Increasing numbers of patients undergoing CABG have previously undergone PCI. Methods: We analyzed consecutive first-time isolated CABG procedures within the Australasian Society of Cardiac and Thoracic Surgeons Database from June 2001 to May 2008.
