What is the survival rate of a triple bypass surgery?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Excellent: All comers: 98-99% over age 80 : 95% with significant lung or kidney disease: lower (depends on the specifics). Emergency surgery also lowers the survival compared with elective surgery.

Quite high: Depends on risk factors going in! the operation itself carries good results in general, but smokers, diabetics, obese have increased risks to have the problems and to recover.
