Objective  To compare postoperative survival rates and the incidence of adverse events in patients with three-vessel disease undergoing complete versus incomplete revascularization during coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Methods  A retrospective analysis was conducted on patient data from Tianjin Chest Hospital who underwent primary isolated CABG surgery between 2019 and 2020. Patients were divided into a complete revascularization group and an incomplete revascularization group based on the revascularization status after surgery. Inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) was used for risk adjustment. Results  A total of 1 419 patients were included in the study, with 1 086 (76.5%) undergoing complete revascularization. IPTW analysis showed that complete revascularization could reduce the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) [HR=0.596, 95%CI (0.404, 0.880), P=0.010] and angina [HR=0.560, 95%CI (0.377, 0.823), P=0.004]. Conclusion  In patients with multivessel coronary artery disease, complete revascularization may be associated with improved patient outcomes.
