Abstract Objectives Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are common procedures for managing coronary artery disease (CAD); however, optimal methods of comparing post-procedure outcomes are unclear. We evaluated the reliability of Synergy between percutaneous coronary intervention with Taxus and cardiac surgery (SYNTAX) scores and investigated differences in long-term outcomes after CABG among groups with different SYNTAX scores. Methods According to patient selection criteria used in the SYNTAX trial, 368 patients who underwent isolated initial CABG between 2003 and 2014 at Kurashiki Central Hospital were stratified into three SYNTAX score I groups (low:
