Aims: Long term cardiovascular outcome comparison of multivessel coronary disease among patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) is limited. The objective of this study was to compare the long-term cardiovascular outcome PCI vs CABG among DM patients with multivessel disease. Method and results: Online databases were explored to identify studies that compared cardiovascular outcomes between PCI and CABG among patients with DM. The primary outcome was all-cause mortality. Secondary outcomes included major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE), myocardial infarction (MI), rate of revascularization, cardiac death, and cerebrovascular accident (CVA). A total of 27 studies with 37,091 (PCI n = 19,838 (53 %) and CABG n = 17,253 (47 %)) patients were included. The mean age was 64 ± 5.9 years for PCI group and 63.8 ± 5.3 years for CABG group; and, predominantly male (71.22 % vs 74.29 %) for PCI and CABG respectively. The most common comorbidity was hypertension (64.35 % vs 62.88 %) in both PCI and CABG respectively. Compared with CABG, PCI group had a higher odds of overall all-cause mortality (OR 1.18, 95 % CI 1.02–1.37, p = 0.03), MACCE (OR 1.52, 95 % CI 1.31–1.75, p = 0.00), MI (OR 1.85, 95 % CI 1.46–2.36, p = 0.00), repeat revascularization (OR 3.08, 95 % CI 2.34–4.05, p = 0.00) and cardiac death (OR 1.27, 95 % 1.02–1.59, p = 0.04), while CVA (0.57, 95 % CI 0.37–0.86, p = 0.01) was higher with CABG. Conclusion: Diabetic patients with multivessel coronary artery disease have worse outcomes undergoing PCI as compared to CABG. However, CVA was significantly higher with CABG. CABG remains the preferred management among eligible patients with multivessel disease and DM.
