Abstract
Coronary artery disease patients suffering from ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) or non-STEMI (NSTEMI) require rapid decision on invasive therapy relying on state-of-the-art concepts. This article provides evidence-based recommendations on the choice between, or the combination of, the mechanistically different options, coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)-with a special focus on multivessel disease patients. Furthermore, strategies of modern CABG in STEMI and NSTEMI patients are presented.
