Five-year outcomes following PCI with DES versus CABG for unprotected LM coronary lesions: meta-analysis and meta-regression of 2914 patients

Abstract: CABG surgery remains the best option of treatment for patients with ULMCA disease, with less need of TVR and MACCE rates at long-term follow-up.

“…A couple of meta-analyses by Sá et al suggested CABG was the best treatment for ULMCA disease with higher risk of target vessel revascularisation as well as MACCE in the PCI group. 16 17 Sá et al recently published another meta-analysis suggesting similar results but with no significant difference in MACCE at 1-year follow-up. 18 The authors mentioned that no definitive conclusion can be made from the evidence due to heterogeneity in study outcomes, procedural strategies and complexity of coronary lesions.…”

“… 18 The authors mentioned that no definitive conclusion can be made from the evidence due to heterogeneity in study outcomes, procedural strategies and complexity of coronary lesions. 18 Unlike the previous meta-analyses, 16 17 the more recent one 18 found no significant difference in MACCE which may represent improvement of outcomes associated with the evolution of interventional techniques.…”

“…Randomized and nonrandomized trials in the DES era showed conflicting results with different follow-up durations. Small meta-analysis studies [ 6 , 7 ] that mainly recruited randomized trials were conducted in the past; however, the outcomes have been variable. We therefore conducted this large, updated meta-analysis study involving randomized and up-to-date published data to review the clinical outcomes between the 2 treatment modalities.…”

“…Coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) still remains the standard care for patients with multivessel coronary artery disease comparing to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). This maybe due to its lower rates of major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events in short-term and long-term periods [ 1 - 5 ] .…”
