    The data might seem to support prophylactic CABG. However, the mortality/morbidity of coronary revascularization, of a non-cardiac procedure and of postponement of vascular surgery must be added.28 31 The mortality of vascular patients in cardiac surgery (6.5%) is much higher than the mortality of patients without vascular disease (0.5–2%).8 31 50 82 98 99
