These deposits can narrow the coronary arteries causing diminished blood flow to the heart, eventually leading to symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath or even a heart attack. CAD is the most common type of heart disease. It is the leading cause of death in the United States in both men and women. During Cardiac surgery, coronary artery bypass graft surgery, CABG, the most commonly performed open heart operation in the United States; blood flow is rerouted through a new artery or vein that is grafted around diseased sections of the coronary arteries to increase blood flow to the heart muscle tissue.
