Abstract
The main finding of our study was the association between MetS and mortality both early and late after coronary artery bypass grafting. Thus, MetS should be recognized as an independent preoperative variable that can lead to the identification of high-risk patients and as a risk factor to correct with lifestyle modifications and pharmacologic therapy.
