CABG or Coronary Bypass surgery in India is conventionally performed by splitting or cutting through the breastbone or sternum. MICAS or MICS CABG surgery is considered to be a safe and complete operation and has revolutionised the way coronary surgery is performed. Apollo Hospitals has successfully completed 400 and more CABG surgeries in India.

MICS CABG or MICAS stands for Minimally Invasive Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery and is a newer form of heart bypass surgery in India. It is a relatively new and advanced technique of performing coronary bypass for the treatment of coronary heart diseases. In this technique, the heart is approached through the side of the left chest via a small 4 cm incision. This cut is placed just under the nipple. The chest is entered between the ribs without cutting any bones and by splitting the muscle.

Similar to a regular heart surgery, the operation is performed using all arteries or a combination of arteries and veins removed from the leg. The vessel from the leg in these operations is also removed endoscopically without cutting the skin over the leg. With highly advanced instrumentation, advanced techniques and skilled Clinicians, Apollo Hospitals performs the surgery very safely, making it one of the best hospitals for CABG surgeries in India.
