Figure 1 Cumulative Survival Rates After PTCA or CABG in Diabetic and Nondiabetic Patients

Cumulative un-adjusted survival in 1,041 patients (8% with treated diabetes mellitus [DM]) who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) between 1970 and 1985 and 702 (11% with treated DM) who underwent first percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) between 1980 and 1985. Analyses of patients after 10 to 20 years follow-up revealed survival rates in surgically treated patients to be lower than PTCA-treated patients. Reproduced from van Domburg et al.
