| Angiographic parameters | Overall (317) | CABG (98) | PCI (219) | P value |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Number of lesion; mean(SD) | 4.3 (1.6) | 4.4 (1.5) | 4.3 (1.6) | 0.56 |
| LM disease; n (%) | 111 (35.0) | 38 (38.8) | 73 (33.3) | 0.35 |
| Bifurcation; n (%) | 225 (70.1) | 67 (68.4) | 158 (72.1) | 0.49 |
| Severe calcification; n (%) | 105 (33.1) | 27 (27.6) | 78 (35.6) | 0.16 |
| Total occlusion; n (%) | 89 (28.1) | 24 (24.5) | 65 (29.7) | 0.34 |
| Number of stents implanted per patient; mean (SD) | NA | NA | 2.6 (1.3) | NA |
| Number of conduits (arterial and venous) performed per patient; mean (SD) | NA | 2.9 (1.5) | NA | NA |
