Hello,

cabg is the the better option as there is disease in almost all the vessels of heart. The alternate option is medical therapy, however it is not the method of choice as there is risk of sudden cardiac myocardial infarction.

Prices of cabg vary according to locality and hospital. you need to visit different hospitals for exact charges.

Recently cabg is being performed on beating heart and is the method of choice. After cabg strict diet and medical therapy is compulsory which will be advised by your physician.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Adeel Malik
