Abstract
Recently in Heart, Lung and Circulation, Sharma et al. [1] reported an elegant meta-analysis of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) outcomes in patients with poor myocardial viability. The study included seven articles with 993 patients with a median age of 54.8–67.2 years, and follow-up of between 12–125 months. The absence of an interaction between myocardial viability and gain from CABG in this study indicates that estimation of myocardial viability alone should not be the deciding factor in selecting the best therapy for these patients.
