Rajinikanth undergoes cardio artery revascularization surgery

Actor Rajinikanth underwent cardio artery revascularization surgery successfully in a private hospital in Chennai. Doctors say that he is doing well and would be discharged in a few days.

The news was conformed in a medical bulletin issued by the hospital this afternoon.

Coronary revascularization is the procedure used to treat coronary artery disease when the coronary arteries become severely blocked.

Coronary artery disease is a result of atherosclerosis, a disease that narrows large arteries and limits blood supply to vital organs.
