I spend too much time in the car listening to doctor radio, there is an ongoing war in the medical community on stents vs bypass.
Stents are a lot less scary for the patient, so they come with an automatic head start. But now I hear of some minimally invasive bypass surgery that may tip the scales.
The other ongoing battle is regarding statins, according to some doctors they should be in the drinking water (an obvious exaggeration).
There is no such thing as settled science.
