Blockage after bypass surgery
My husband had a 5-way bypass in December 2006. Will those ateries every clog again and if so how long would it take?
The occlusion (CAD) process is not curative, there is always a chance of recurrence of the CAD and one does enter into a grey zone at about 10 years, when the graft attrition will start. I think, you should not be concerned about the life of the bypass surgery... just take care of the risk factors.
