Cardiology / Heart Surgery
Heart surgery includes a range of procedures to treat heart conditions,
such as coronary artery bypass grafting, heart valve repair, and heart transplants.
Types of Heart Surgery
The most common heart surgeries include coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG),
heart valve repair or replacement, heart transplant, and surgeries for congenital heart defects.
These procedures are designed to address different heart-related issues.
Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG)
Involves creating new pathways for blood flow to bypass blocked or narrowed coronary arteries, typically using veins or arteries from other parts of the body.
This surgery is used to treat coronary artery disease.
Heart Valve Surgery
Aims to repair or replace damaged heart valves that regulate blood flow through the heart’s chambers
Common valve surgeries include procedures for mitral valve prolapse, aortic stenosis, and others.
Heart Transplant
A complex procedure that involves replacing a diseased heart with a healthy donor heart.
This surgery is typically reserved for patients with end-stage heart failure or severe heart disease.
Surgery for Congenital Heart Defects
Addresses heart defects present at birth.
These surgeries can vary widely, from relatively simple procedures to complex reconstructive surgeries, depending on the nature of the defect.
Minimally Invasive Heart Surgery
Involves smaller incisions and specialized techniques to reduce trauma and recovery time.
It can be used for certain valve surgeries, CABG, and other heart procedures.
