PCI versus CABG: ASCERT Registry
189,000 stable patients =65 years old treated with either PCI or CABG

Meta-Analysis of 10 randomized CABG vs. PCI
trials- 7000 patients

Impact of age

1800 patients with 3 vessel CAD randomized to PCI with Paclitaxel DES or CABG

Impact of Syntax Score
Serruys, et al. N Engl J Med 2009;360:961-72
Freedom trial- long term outcomes
1900 diabetics enrolled from 140 centers with mostly 1st generation DES
Farkouh, et al. N Engl J Med 2012;367:2375-84
Backgrounds- Most trials comparing PCI with CABG have not made
use of 2nd -generation drug-eluting stents.
The primary end point =
composite of death, MI, or TVR at 2 years after randomization
Park S J. N Engl J Med 2015;372:1204-12
BEST studymain results
• 27 centers in East Asia
• 880 patients
• 438 in PCI group
• 442 in CABG group
• MACEs was higher
among those who had
undergone PCI with the
use of Everolimus-DES
than among those who
had undergone CABG

PCI for multi-vessel CAD
1st message:
PCI is good in patients with young age, less complex
CAD (low Syntax score), and non-diabetic.

2nd message:
Complete Revascularization is important practical issue.
