A member asked:

Is the recovery, or the actual procedure, more important regarding triple bypass heart surgery?

5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Both: The technical features of the cardiac surgery, including difficulty, age of patient, coexisting illness are important and will often times determine how well the recovery will be. Neither is mutually exclusive.

Both: Cut well, sew well, do well is the axiom. Without good surgery, recovery does not necessarily go well.
