Coronary bypass (or CABG) is the most common operation done by cardiac surgeons. It remains the most effective solution for blockage of your coronary arteries.

As published by the state of New Jersey: Englewood Cardiac Surgery once again achieved a 100% survival rate following coronary bypass surgery. This 0% mortality has been achieved at Englewood consistently over the last four state reports.  We take pride in these consistently superior outcomes attributable to the highest level of technical expertise and competence delivered to each patient by our entire team.

Adult cardiac surgery is the most studied surgical subspecialty with a long history of carefully documented results allowing incredible improvement in our performance and enabling the patient to make clearly informed decisions about their care. We proudly present some of our results below and encourage all patients to carefully review the outcomes of any procedure with the team they are going to work with.

Key Benefits

  • The most effective and durable solution for angina (chest pain due to lack of blood flow to the heart).
  • Over 97% of patients will receive at least one arterial graft (mammary artery)- these grafts will improve your survival and last longer than any stent (balloon procedures) or other types of materials used for bypass.

Several recent studies have confirmed the advantages in long term survival of patients who have bypass surgery as opposed to taking medicines or having balloon or stent procedures for many kinds of coronary artery blockages. Our surgeons have perfected the techniques available to perform this operation with the chance of dying following the procedure (after adjustment for how sick the patients are) to less than 1%.
