Results of reoperation for unsuccessful coronary artery bypass surgery.

abstract：:Diseases that cause symptoms incompletely relieved by available modes of treatment stimulate search for new therapies. Chronic disease processes, in which interventions are palliative rather than curative provide a particular challenge in determining the value of therapeutic intervention. Management of patients with a...
