Abstract : American College of Cardiology (ACC), American Heart Association (AHA) and Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions (SCAI) recently released the Clinical Practice Guidelines for myocardial revascularization [1]. The guidelines were the felt need of the fraternity and this single all-encompassing document, relegating the previous six guidelines on the subject to archives, is indeed welcome. However, the downgrading of coronary artery bypass surgery for stable multivessel coronary artery disease and its bracketing with percutaneous coronary interventions has caused a lot of anguish in the surgical fraternity. This document presents the official viewpoint of the Indian Association of Cardiovascular and Thoracic Surgeons on the matter.
