Abstract
Our population is aging and so is our patient profile. We had the experience of getting some of our octogenarian patients getting through coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery well. A couple of interesting studies on CABG in octogenarians and a study comparing percutaneous coronary intervention with CABG in octogenarians are being discussed.
