There are no set rules for this. It depends on angiography of each individual patient.
In DM, the pattern of atherosclerosis is diffused and its rarely a single or double vessel lesion, so CABG is appropriate Rx. However there are always exception to this. In general if there is diffuse disease present in all vessels, then CABG is better, otherwise angioplasty is preferred.
