Abstract
Background
The benefit of coronary-artery revascularization before elective major vascular surgery is unclear.
Methods
We randomly assigned patients at increased risk for perioperative cardiac complications and clinically significant coronary artery disease to undergo either revascularization or no revascularization before elective major vascular surgery. The primary end point was long-term mortality.
