Coronary angiography, injecting radiopaque contrast into the coronary arteries through a catheter, transformed the care of millions of patients and the careers of tens of thousands of cardiologists. As was typical of new diagnostic techniques, coronary angiography was the result of a series of technological innovations combined with contributions that many individuals had made over several years. But Mason Sones Jr. of the Cleveland Clinic was the main innovator and promoter of coronary angiography, which he described in a 1960 publication. At the time, there was no accepted surgical treatment for coronary heart disease, so very few cardiologists saw the need to refer their patients for this invasive catheter-based procedure. Sones and his colleagues at the Cleveland Clinic became tireless promoters of coronary angiography and of the Vineberg internal mammary artery implant operation as a treatment strategy for patients with coronary artery disease and angina pectoris.

This chapter provides a summary of a landmark historical study in cardiac surgery related to internal mammary artery ligation versus sham sternotomy for angina pectoris. It describes the history of the procedure and a summary of the study including study design and results, and relates the study to a modern-day principle of evidence-based medicine: blinding and sham surgery. Whether or not sham surgery is ethical remains under debate. Proponents for sham surgery agree that it should be used only when a question cannot be answered adequately by other methods. Cobb and his colleagues were among the first to demonstrate the value of sham studies in addressing important clinical questions.
