Position Statement and Commentary by STS and AATS on the 2023 ACC/AHA Chronic Coronary Syndrome Revascularization Guidelines.

Consensus document from EACTS and STS on indications and surgical management of different graft types in coronary revascularization surgery.

A joint consensus document by the ESC and EACTS updates the recommendations of the 2018 guidelines regarding revascularization in patients with left main coronary artery disease.

Summary of American societies’ clinical guidelines for the clinical and therapeutic management of patients with stable coronary disease.

Comparative study of mid-to-long-term experience in a single center on grafting patent stented vessels versus leaving them ungrafted in patients undergoing surgical revascularization.

Results from the Swedish registry SWEDENHEART on the comparative outcomes of coronary intervention versus surgical revascularization in left main coronary artery disease and a contrast with findings from major clinical trials.

A systematic review and meta-analysis of observational studies comparing the use of double internal mammary artery (BITA) with saphenous vein (SV) versus BITA with radial artery (RA) in surgical treatment for triple-vessel coronary artery disease. Long-term survival was evaluated with follow-up up to 12 years.

Comparative meta-analysis of prospective studies on urgent revascularization in patients with multivessel disease presenting specifically as Non-ST-Elevation Acute Coronary Syndrome (NSTE-ACS), via coronary artery bypass grafting or percutaneous intervention.

This meta-analysis, encompassing 6 clinical trials, compares percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in cases of left main coronary artery disease or multivessel disease, presenting results stratified according to the SYNTAX score.
