Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG)
You'll also hear Cabbage times 1, 2, 3, or 4, the numbers refer to the amount of arteries involved. The higher the number the more severe the situation.

They call it a "cabbage" because of the acronym: Coronary Artery Bypass Graft ie. CABG
Also - it's cute when you have a bay of people who have had CABG and the nurses will call it their "cabbage patch"
:-)
