CABG surgery entails grafting portions of a patient's native blood vessels to bypass obstructed coronary arteries. Two types of surgical grafts are used. The first employs native veins, typically a section of the saphenous vein that is sutured from the base of the aorta to a coronary segment downstream from the region of stenosis. The second method uses arterial grafts, commonly an internal mammary artery that can be directly anastomosed distal to a stenotic coronary site. Vein grafts are more vulnerable to atherosclerosis years after the operation compared to arteries. The surgeons are seen preparing the vein for grafting while the heart beats peacefully on the background.
