- Can "unblock" multiple blockages with a single bypass. Unlike angioplasty, which targets a single blockage, grafting a vessel in a bypass surgery can effectively reroute the affected vessel over multiple blockages.
- Uses other blood vessels to reroute blockage. One of the most common vessels in the body to remove and graft to the heat is the Internal thoracic artery.
- Very effective–the surgery isn't like an angioplasty, pushing the plaque against the vessel wall. It makes the affected blood vessel obsolete. It's as if your coronary artery started back at square one!

Undergoing a Coronary Bypass Surgery is very effective because it uses another part of the body to fix the clogged artery and has a better efficiency than an angioplasty.
