Abstract
Advances in coronary artery revascularization have been accompanied by clinical trials evaluating these advances. Part I of this paper addressed historic trials related to coronary artery revascularization. This paper reviews the data supporting newer revascularization strategies for our patients, including drug-eluting stents and off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery. Benefits include reduced repeat revascularization in patients who undergo percutaneous treatments with drug-eluting stents, the durability of surgical arterial revascularization, and the importance of medical therapy as the mainstay of treatment.Entities:
