- The pain, cost, and recuperation time of CABG were far outweighed by the reduction of risk and improvement of symptoms. Because it is less painful, less invasive, and has a very short recovery time, PCI has displaced CABG as the primary method for coronary revascularization in patients who have a relatively low inherent risk of infarction and death. [...]PCI was generally reserved for patients with an unacceptable surgical risk even though it was less invasive.
