Hello!

Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!

Regarding your concern, I would explain that there are also other possible treatment options besides surgery (or coronary bypass) for coronary artery disease.

Coronary catheterization coupled with stent implantation is the main treatment option in such cases.

You should discuss with his doctor on the above possibility.

Hope you will find this answer helpful!

Kind regards,

Dr. Iliri
