Sex differences in outcomes of patients undergoing on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting surgery.

ABSTRACT: There are controversies regarding the impact of sex on mortality and postoperative complications in patients undergoing on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), although some studies demonstrate comparable outcomes.
