“…In contrast to the above trials, the ARTS-II registry (consisting of patients with multivessel disease treated with DES) has reported 1-year results similar to the CABG cohorts in the first ARTS study. 24 The dramatic reduction of TVF and subsequent revascularization seen with DES propounds the possibility that a strategy of PCI with DES conferred at least similar if not beneficial results compared with CABG. This possibility prompted the present study.…”

“…22,23 Theoretically, this should reduce the combined end points (mortality, MI, and TVF) that often comprise the primary end points of pivotal trials. Using DES, the Arterial Revascularization Therapies Study Part II (ARTS-II) investigators 24 reported favorable early results, and prospective, randomized trials comparing PCI with DES and CABG in patients with multivessel disease and in diabetics are currently under way. 25 We evaluated outcomes associated with PCI with DES and CABG in a "real-world" population of patients with multivessel disease at a single high-volume center.…”

“…It was demonstrated that the SYNTAX score was one of the strongest predictors of MACE (odds ratio [OR] 1.43, 95% confidence interval [95% CI] 1.08-1.90; P = 0.014), as was diabetes mellitus (OR 1.76, 95% CI 1.13-2.74; P = 0.012). 8 This evidence was used to determine which patients would be ineligible for percutaneous revascularisation techniques, based on higher anatomic complexity.…”

“…However, in the last years, evidence has narrowed the indication of revascularization procedures in stable patients, with conflicting results regarding the benefits and impact on mortality when comparing the initial treatment options. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9] Prior studies have suggested that PCI decreases symptoms without a long-term prognostic effect, even when compared to medical treatment alone. 7,8 More recent data reinforced the superiority of CABG in preventing major cardiac events in patients with multivessel disease, especially in patients with more complex coronary artery disease and diabetes.…”
