[The need for coronary surgery in Austria].
The coronary artery disease has a high incidence; 2500 patients per million population are dying of an acute myocardial infarction, 3000 people are suffering from an acute myocardial infarction annually. The aorto-coronary vein bypass is an established method and gains more importance, so that the operative incidence in the USA is annually up to 1000 per million population, in Europe up to 500. Based on these figures the incidence for Austria is calculated and would be up to 7500. The recent strategy of the treatment of an acute infarction in an acute "cardiac trauma center" is described. A cost-efficiency analysis is presented.
