Introduction
The anatomical SYNTAX score (SS) has been considered an important tool in the quantitative assessment of the complexity of coronary artery disease (CAD) and in facilitating the risk stratification of patients undergoing revascularisation. However, the anatomical SS, obtained prior to revascularisation, has been shown not to be associated with short- and long-term clinical outcomes in patients who received coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). These findings prompted the development of the CABG SS, assessing native residual stenotic lesions, taking into account the extent of revascularisation by bypass grafting, with the aim of helping to identify patients at higher risk ...
