What is the average expected survival rate for someone of his age and what complications can occur after Op.

The surgeon would risk complicating review with your father before obtaining his consent for surgery .. No surgery is not without risks. You have not provided much information about your father than others, he has the disease of three vessels. I will list the possible complications. A patient preexisting medical conditions that may affect the risk of certain complications. They include infection, excessive bleeding, stroke, heart attack, pneumonia, kidney failure, irregular heartbeats and death.CAB surgery was performed for many years with good results and limited complications. Take care, Donna

All this should be discussed at your father sign a consent form. His cardiothoracic surgeon will discuss with him according to his general health, lifestyle etc. ..
