Eh, I think the data is controversial and case-dependent in two-vessel disease. If this were three vessel disease, the data is far more in favor of CABG. The fluoroscopy doesn't look convincing to me of major stenosis, so a PCI/stent could certainly be placed for symptomatic relief without a CABG.
Additionally, the patient definitely did not need emergency CABG. My understanding is that CABG could be completed after stenting, and may very well have happened for this patient without our knowledge.
