Detection of Gender Differences in Incomplete Revascularization after Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery Varies with Classification Technique
Figure 2
Incomplete revascularization according to the number of diseased vessels (%). According to the mathematical calculation (a), women with double-vessel disease or main stem stenosis more often receive incomplete revascularization than men, whereas the gender differences in single-vessel or triple-vessel disease are not significant. If the surgeons’ classification is considered (b), a similar pattern is identified, yet with a relative overestimation of male double-vessel disease and underestimation of female triple-vessel disease.
